Our Favourite Murals From Festival Inspire 2019

Festival Inspire continued strong this summer by bringing in artists from all over the world to paint Dieppe and Moncton for its fifth year. The week long event saw many visitors who enjoyed watching the progression of the pieces from start to finish.
