In a first for the Neon Sign Museum, Edmonton native and renowned musician k.d. lang was celebrated for her achievements and legacy with her very own sign.
The sign is placed next to the historic Flash Back sign, Edmonton’s first gay bar, where lang herself once performed. A future interactive element will be added to the display, allowing visitors to engage with stories connected to lang’s life and work.
k.d. lang’s sign is the first honouring an individual at the museum, which has primarily featured signs from Edmonton’s commercial history. This latest addition underscores the city’s commitment to honouring local icons and making history accessible to all.
The honour came as lang prepared for induction into the Country Music Hall of Fame at the 2024 CCMA Awards.
