There was no missing the artists’ work on Saturday in Vanier.

Part of Montreal Road was closed for Mozaik, a community block party that featured the unveiling of Ottawa’s tallest mural at 261 Montreal Rd.

Presented by the Quartier-Vanier Business Improvement Area and House of PainT, the party included art, culture, food and entertainment.

The four-storey-tall mural celebrating Inuit culture had to get the official OK from city council because it exceeds the maximize height for murals.

In a Citizen story in advance of the mural’s unveiling, the BIA called Vanier a “cultural mosaic” and home to the largest Inuit population outside of Nunavut. The mural is intended to honour their history, experiences and contribution to Vanier, and features marine creatures from the North to highlight conservation, stewardship and harmony.

Mique Michelle, Kalkidan Assefa and 11-year-old Marcus Kisa Gaudreau were the artists who collaborated on the mural’s creation.
