Gurpreet:

Congrats if you made it this far! We’ve got one final stop to make, and it just may take your breath away.

Throughout South Asia, marigolds are used for festivals and celebrations year-round. These beautiful flowers represent the sun, symbolize brightness and bring forward positive energy.

Marigolds in the Market is a public art installation presented by the Punjabi Market Regeneration Collective, with support from the City of Vancouver, United Way of the Lower Mainland, BC Rentals, and Club Card. The marigolds themselves were provided by Bombay Bazaar.

The installation was created in May 2021 to spread positivity in the Sunset area and celebrate the vibrant history of this diverse neighborhood and its connection to the community. The goal is to help create a sense of place in the Punjabi Market, and to bring the community together. The PMRC felt this was a great way to do that.

And that brings us to the end of today’s walking tour. Thank you for taking the time to learn more about the history of the Punjabi Market in Vancouver. We hope you will share what you learned today with your friends and family, and also encourage them to visit the Punjabi Market to take in all that it has to offer.

This tour has been brought to you by the Indian Summer Festival and the Punjabi Market Regeneration Collective.

My name is Gurpreet Sian, and it has been a pleasure guiding you through the Punjabi Market.

Sat Sri Akal and Goodbye.
