Thanks to Destination BC and Tourism Ch'illiwack for arranging a mural tour in District 1881 for a group of travel writers from Vancouver and Calgary. The writers all target the Asia-Pacific region with their websites and articles; they'll be writing about Chilliwack as a visitor destination.

It was a pleasure to lead the group and share a little about Chilliwack's history before we viewed a number of murals from the Chilliwack Mural Festival, including works by Carrielynn Victor, Juanjo Surace, Curtis Hylton and Malik.
