Over the course of each year, a mural team is established from the regular participants at the weekly sessions. The mural will be painted at a long term care home or seniors’ home in East Vancouver. The project is a collaboration among youth artists, peer mentors, youth workers, professional arts, Indigenous leaders and community members.
