Dreamfish on park fence, Belleville, Ontario
Here you see wooden fish decorated by kids dreaming of a future with healthy streams who were encouraged to paint the fish colourfully and then "set them free" along this chain link fence.
More fish on fence
There are many, many more fish on the fence than you can see here. This mural is a call to action to care for our water.

Wonderful to see these splashes of color on chain link fences and the theme is a very important one. We also have similar art projects on Vancouver fences … nice to see these messages spread. :)
Hopefully it influences some kid to do something meaningful in the future!

I wondered what it meant to see fishes on a fence. In Vancouver, I saw something similar to what you photographed.
Those are great!

Hah! I found a couple of similar schools of painted fish in BC a few years ago. It's clearly a successful cross-country program to raise awareness of fish ecology in youths. :-)

My daughter used to go to Sunningdale French Immersion school in Oakville. They had a similar Stream of Dreams in their field.
Very nice, funny and creative!

Oh, this is wild!!! So love it.
What a great idea. I know the children had a wonderful time painting those fish and setting them free to swim along the fence.
