The Sackville Arts Wall recognizes and honours achievements of Sackville and area artists who have attained international, national or regional prominence and distinction in the three classifications of Literary Arts, Performing Arts, and Visual Arts. It also honours a Sackville and area citizen (or group) who has been instrumental in the cultural and artistic development within our community.
Initiated in 2008, the year of Sackville’s designation as a Cultural Capital of Canada, its first members were named in 2009. At least one and up to a maximum of four new members (one per category) may be added to the wall biannually, as chosen by a jury from among candidates nominated by the public.
