Poetry Reading at the Toronto Free Gallery

Last Tuesday some of us 'ladies' went down to the Toronto Free Gallery to hear some poems. It was a benefit for the committee that is organizing the commemoration and demonstration for the missing and murdered Aboriginal women. Yes it was very moving and emotional, and also great to hear such strong words. Faith Nolan sang and that did lift us up.

Also, we saw Carol Conde and Karl Beveridge photo exhibit. They tackled the issues of Mexican migrant workers in Ontario, land development, the toxification of water, the economic crash. Inspiring work. We want to make pictures too.

Amazing paintings by M.

We miss here when she's gone.

The Monday Art Group continues to gather and make art. We have more projects brewing, big and small. For now poetry, knitting, drawing, beading, drinking tea and quietly exploring.

We think about food and under nourishment. So we had a feast, it was the holidays after all, but vegetables were on request! And homemade calzones.

Why have all the cooking utensils been thrown away?

Our Banner Project finally complete and installed on the Heinztman street wall of Evangeline (as well as inside).

The Quilt Project installed at the Capitalism and Culture in the Junction exhibit.
