From City of Mississauga’s website:

“The City of Mississauga seeks to commission a large-scale mural that celebrates and honours the history of Mississauga and its name. The mural will be located on the fly tower of the Living Arts Centre within the City’s Downtown Core and will incorporate an Augmented Reality (AR) component.
