Help Swinton's Art Supply & Instruction keep their window mural. The City of Calgary and it's petty officials won't let us keep our beautiful window mural. We think that's unfair. They say it's signage. We know it's art. It looks beautiful and it is not a danger to the public in any way what so ever. We believe it should not be up to administration characterized by excessive red tape and routine to decide what is art and to make it difficult to beautify our neighborhoods and promote our businesses. Help us fight the bureaucracy by signing our petition. We will submit it to the City of Calgary in November 2009.

The city officials continue to call our mural signage instead of recognizing it as the local art it truly is. Post a picture of the mural on your own Facebook page and tag the City of Calgary to show them the support this piece has in our neighborhood. Email your local representative to demand they stop this unnecessary red tape immediately.

The momentum behind this mural is undeniable and it proves the city cannot ignore the public anymore. Post this link on your Facebook wall right now to show the planning department that we demand to keep our art.

I walk past this place every day and it always makes me smile. Its art, not a billboard. Common sense please city hall.

TOTAL NONSENSE. The city has so many real problems to fix instead of harassing local businesses.

Just let them keep the art. Nobody is being hurt by a nice painting.

Ridiculous waste of tax dollars worrying about a window. Leave Swinton's alone!

This mural makes the street look so much better. Why is the city trying to ruin it for everyone?
