Unveiling of Mural
Spent the last few months from Jan-May2026 painting with differently abled students and fellow instructor Cassandra....
The incredible thing was that Cassandra and her students worked on a different day separately from me and my students..
But we managed to collaborate, coordinate colours and design to keep the whole mural flowing without seeing each other in person..TY, Cassandra!
Parents, friends, students and fellow community members came to see the mural unveiled...
Students were proud of their efforts and they were paid a stipend...
Thank you to the Mississauga Foundation's Hazel McCallion Arts, Culture and Heritage Fund for funding this project, Christine B. of Options Mississauga for her vision, Stephen Dasko for his constant support...
And the students for their diligence and stick-to-it-ness for the duration of the project...
Parent said to me of his son: " He never wanted to paint before your class.."
I thanked her for her affirming comment: "I commend your son for being willing and interested enough to embark on this painting journey while discovering he can stretch his horizons... "
Gosh! Hope you're finding ways to keep cool, dear friends..I found a nice rock to hide under!
