My Contribution
Within this project I taught a class of 8 young artists how to benefit to their community through the means of creation and most importantly within mural art & public art projects. This was an 8 week course with the final project being a large scale alley way mural project built and painted to transform a dirty alley way into a vibrant space bringing together the local community. Since launching this project this has become the most famous mural location in Vancouver BC and gone beyond the expectations of the council and its community
