Hepburn Park in St. Thomas: New Mural, New Opportunities, New Growth
Our team at young & free press is thrilled to announce that artist Ola Volo will be coming to downtown St. Thomas in September 2026 to paint an incredible new mural in Hepburn Park! The artwork will revolve around the theme of bringing Mother Nature back into the heart of urban spaces.
Over the past two years, we have been working in collaboration with the City of St. Thomas Parks and Recreation Department and Arthur Lierman Landscape Architecture to imagine the renewal of Hepburn Park. The new artwork by one of the leading mural artists in Canada marks a significant step forward!
Stay tuned for updates in the coming weeks. St. Thomas City Council has supported the overall vision for the renewal of Hepburn Park contingent on assembling the full funding required. Images of past artwork in the park will be reproduced on signs and installed in the renewed space.
