You're cordially invited to be a part of something truly special – the KinnArt Ravine Mural Project!
Where: Parkdale Cromdale Community League 11335 85 Street
When: Starting soon! Sign up now to secure your spot.
The KinnArt Ravine Mural Project isn't just another public art gallery; it's a vibrant testament to community collaboration and creativity. Since its inception in 2015 and subsequent renewal in 2018, this outdoor art installation has been a focal point for artistic expression and community pride.
At the heart of our initiative lies the principle: "It is not public art; it is art made by the public." We believe in empowering our community members to become artists in their own right, mentoring participants of all ages and backgrounds in the rich tradition of muralism.
Together, we will design, prepare, and paint 10 to 15 magnificent murals, covering an impressive 1,900 square feet of community art space along the retaining walls of the Kinnaird Ravine. These murals, created by local families, professional artists, and non-profit groups alike, will weave a tapestry of stories, colours, and dreams that reflect the vibrant spirit of our community.
This is your chance to leave a lasting mark on our beloved neighbourhood and to contribute your unique voice to a collective masterpiece that will inspire generations to come.
Don't miss out on this incredible opportunity to unleash your creativity and connect with your community in a meaningful way this summer.
Sign up now to secure your spot and let's paint the town – and the ravine – together!
