A legacy project for the Coquitlam 125th birthday celebrations now has more sponsors.

Last month, the city received funding from Ageless Radiance MedSpa to place a handpainted salmon sculpture at the Coquitlam Crunch, from realtor Rebecca Permack for a salmon at Victoria Park and from chartered accountant Sharon Perry Inc. for a fish at the Poirier Sport and Leisure Complex.

Four other organizations have partnered with the city to fund a salmon: Austin Heights BIA (Blue Mountain); Marcon (Cottonwood Park); Onni Group (city hall); and Square Nine Developments Inc. (Town Centre Park - Lafarge Lake).

The dozen public artworks will be unveiled next week at the city's Kaleidoscope festival at Town Centre Park.
