#powerofthearts

In progress 🖌️🎨... six out of nine sections almost done. My client just agreed to my idea of painting butterflies on the three panels at the top (not in the pictures). This mural will deliver a message of hope so needed these days... Excited about next week! More butterflies 🦋🦋!

What a night!! What an incredible amount of youth talent at the Cappies Gala @ottawacappies 🎭🎶🎨 I had the honoured to be with @masconline Co-Executive Director, Wendy Hartley on stage presenting some of the winners and thrilled to have been chosen to offer a design set workshop to one of the winner schools next year as their award. These awards celebrate High School Theater. I am still in awe of student's creations, huge talent and professional standards. The event production at @nac.cna was also spectacular! Waiting to be called on stage and enjoying the magnificent event we were in our both with MASC artists Jaaji and Chelsey June also presenting. Thanks @ottawacitizen and Ottawa Carleton School Board #OCSB for believing in the power of the arts and supporting talented #youth in such an amazing way! #powerofthearts #myottawa #theater #livemusic #youthtalent #empowerment https://www.instagram.com/p/Bykh0w4FXUh/?igshid=1er57f8pfiis6

@gms_chargers @unitedartscounc @ncdpi @wcpss So proud of Amaya! I worked with Amaya during a poetry residency at Governor Morehead School for the Blind and Visually Impaired. She read her poem at @unitedartscouncil First Friday event. I love what I do and I do what I love. #teachingartist #ArtsIntegration #Arts #powerofthearts #poetry (at United Arts Council of Raleigh and Wake County)

Listening to @qcetty schooling us on the #powerofthearts in opening up the black community to the world of art outside of their community. #creativity (at River Building, Carleton University)
