Whitehorse, YT – Nine key points of entry to the territory will see new “Welcome to Yukon” signs next year.
The Yukon Government says that all of the signs will feature the midnight sun yellow and dark sky blue towards the top of the sign. The lower portions of the signs will be customized with artwork selected by regional subcommittees as well as a complementary colour on the bottom.
The Government says that the subcommittees who will select the art will be made up of representatives from Yukon First Nations and the communities to ensure that it’s representative of the people living nearest to the signs. Any Yukon artists are encouraged to keep their eyes peeled for the public call for artwork in the future.
