The Spirit Catcher is a massive, "permanent" sculpture on Barrie's Lake Simcoe waterfront. Originally created by the artist for the Vancouver Expo, it was donated to the city as long as they transported it to Ontario and mounted it in the original intent (with the arms able to move in the wind). The city agreed and it sits as a beacon of the interest in art and the recognition of the influence of native culture on the area. Great photo opportunity site.

20 minutes away from our cottage. The Spirit Catcher, situated on Barrie's waterfront, was designed by sculptor Ron Baird for the 1986 EXPO in Vancouver. Influenced by the iconography of Indigenous oral traditions in the Pacific Northwest, the work references the Thunderbird.

Barrie's iconic Spirit Catcher. This sculpture by Ron Baird turned 30 last year and remains a primary symbol of our city.
