BEVERLY MURAL
PROGRAM
MURAL PROGRAM DEPICTING OUR PAST
The murals in Beverly celebrate the community and its past. Included are the pioneer families, merchants, landmarks and activities. Some murals are in place while others will be a part of the centennial legacy.
Beverly Beginnings (Giants Program)
3906 – 118 AVENUE
Beverly Beginnings (now the official name of the mural on 39 Street) tells the story of early Beverly along 70 feet of vignettes painted by artist Kris Friesen. The east wall of Pioneer Jewellery and Loan (39 Street and 118 Avenue) hosts this latest edition to the Beverly mural collection.
Beverly Sports Champions
10906 – 40 STREET
The Beverly Heights Community League and the Olde Towne Beverly Historical Society have received funding from the Edmonton Heritage Council for the Living Local Grant to produce a mural that celebrates Beverly Sports Champions. This mural project represents the champions who enabled the sports programs in Beverly. Personal investments of time and money made the hockey, baseball and soccer programs viable. Out of these efforts and role modeling, came champions in those very sports. The mural takes up the entire wall of the “Rink Building” at the Beverly Heights Community League.
Dentistry in Beverly (In Progress)
4408 – 118 AVENUE
The evolution of one of the oldest medical professions in Beverly will be depicted in this mural on the Beverly Family Dental Clinic. An early pioneer, Dr. Shewchuk will be celebrated
