Whether you set out on a self-guided tour or simply wander wherever the trails lead, public art adds a creative lens to your springtime adventure. In Orangeville, the first signs of renewal aren’t just found in budding trees and blooming flowers. They’re etched, painted, and sculpted into the very fabric of the community.
