The "Big Head" was carved from blue granite with the help of Chinese craftsmen. The Big Head has become a symbol of the town since its installation in 2008. The community pitches in to help it accessorize. Hint: Recently since the covid pandemic the big head can spotted with a mask to help protect himself from his visitors.

An artist from Alberta was commissioned to design a sculpture for the City of Canmore. Since Canmore means 'Big Head' in Scottish, that was his inspiration. It was installed in 2008 and weighs nine tons. It's right near Policeman's Park and there are several eating establishments in the area. It makes for a nice stroll on a nice evening.
