Scottish Canals are set to host a series of workshops to discuss design ideas from 27 – 30 April.
Technical experts and designers will attend the sessions to 'maximise the tourism, leisure and business opportunities' offered by the canal and ensure the long-term future of Ardrishaig, Crinan and Lochgilphead.
The results of the workshops will be displayed in an exhibition field on 30 April.
Christopher Breslin, Strategic Planning and Design Manager at Scottish Canals, said: "The Crinan Corridor Charrette will develop a shared vision for how we celebrate that unique character, create even more opportunities for business, leisure and tourism, and build a sustainable future for the area and the canal at its heart."

Fergus Murray, Head of Economic Development at Argyll and Bute Council, added: "This is a fantastic opportunity to shape a shared vision for the area, which will inform the priorities for regenerating the area as well as the next local development plan.
"Rethinking the link between the canal and the communities along it will help us unlock its huge potential, leading to knock on benefits across the wider Mid-Argyll area.
"With professional experts on hand to help develop ideas we will create a shared action plan to deliver what everyone wants – a sustainable economic future for the area."
