Popsilos is proud to contribute to the continuation of the arts community during this trying time. Popsilos has chosen to work with the international urban art agency ASHOP who acted as coproducer during Popsilos’ inaugural production round in 2017. It’s expected the production period will extend until June 30, 2020. Although the circuit itself remains closed to the general public for the moment, production sites began operations following provincial and federal government issued public health guidelines on June 9, 2020. The Drouin Farm in Casselman will welcome urban art artist Dodo Ose who will create a mural themed “The sowing” and the Robert and Louise Lalande farm in Alfred will welcome urban art artist Ankh One who will create a mural themed “Vulnerability”. Winter offers a whole new bright, colourful, yet serene perspective in which to experience the art.ġ1 June 2020 Popsilos adds two new murals on farm silos to its touristic circuit Although properties are closed, visitors can drive through the countryside roads and view the artworks from the roads (we've identified best vantage points, that is roadside views, for each silo).

October 31st marks the closing of the Popsilos circuit's annual season, during which visitors can visit the silos on producers' properties. We were fortunate to offer an experience that is grand in dicovery and relaxation and still possible during this COVID-19 era, at a time when people needed to escape from everyday routines. We're especially happy that the Popsilos circuit made it to the Globe and Mail's Canada's Hidden Treasures this year. Artists Dodo Ose and Anhk One worked with our producers at La Ferme Drouin (Casselman) and La Ferme Robert and Louise Lalande (Alfred) to produce two stunning artworks that joined the five original monumental pieces on the circuit, for a total of seven murals. We couldn't be happier with the addition of two beautiful murals on the circuit this past season. 02 November 2020 Popsilos' fourth season comes to its end
