On February 29, instead of our regular morning meeting, we will celebrate the Leap Year by having a fun meeting to paint tiles for the "Canada Connects" mosaic mural. Tickets are $10 including tile, painting materials, snacks + refreshments. Limited number of tiles available!
Mural Mosaic Inventor, Lewis Lavoie, places each participant's painting into the mosaic one at a time. Lewis carefully selects an area of the mural that your tile will fit for shape, color, contrast, depth and shadow. Mural Mosaic's are created entirely by Lewis' eye, there is not a software program putting the artwork together, it is one artist's work. Paintings are placed together first online then the final location is chosen and the mural is produced physically for installation. Each Mural Mosaic is in production takes 9-18 months to complete - It truly is a magical process to behold!
Mural locations are announced after the June 30th, 2024 submission deadline. Canada Connects Mural installation locations are highly sought after and will be installed in Autumn/Winter, 2024. To date, Canadian murals have been installed in communities throughout the country; to name a few: Courtenay, BC; Edmonton, AB; Saskatoon, SK; Toronto, ON; Dartmouth, NS; Mount Stewart, PEI
