Riverside Park in Kamloops was begun in 1905, on the former site of a lumber mill and a pig farm. Since its inception it has been the major park in the city, with the greatest number of amenities. It is far and away the most used park in the city.

Riverside park is a large and beautiful park, with many flowers in bloom through the summer, so a naked utility box smack in the middle would be a bit of a travesty, so...
The parks department commissioned someone with obvious artistic leanings to cause the box to blend in with its surroundings. They were quite successful, too.
The box is located at the southern edge of the large open area used for spectator seating in front of the bandshell, near the southwest corner of the park.
The artwork is signed by "Zouy" or "Zauy" - or something similar, couldn't get a hit on anything in the ballpark, unfortunately.
Name of Artist: Possibly Zouy
Title of the Art: Untitled
Year Decorated: Undated
