The Façade Festival returned to Vancouver for another year on Tuesday night, transforming the Robson Street side of the Vancouver Art Gallery into a piece of projection art.
Now in its second year, Façade Festival aims to take a dynamic and unique approach to the realm of public art, featuring work by local artists Eric Metcalfe, Barry Doupé, Rebecca Chaperon, Renée Van Halm, and Chris Shier.
