Join this intergenerational and free art-making project for Scarborough and East End residents. Workshops take place outdoors in-person.

About this event

What is a Story Stick? In this project, you will be guided by community artist Pamela Schuller, to wrap sticks with textured and colourful yarns. It is a simple yet powerful way to give form to our personal life stories and collective hopes and visions.

In this phase of the Story Stick Project, we will create a Stick Installation Exhibit, collaboratively formed by wrapping many long sticks with colourful yarns, guided by the participant's visions for local and global change and good.

Community created art has the capacity to raise awareness, to engage creativity for addressing complex problems, and may also support transformation to sustainability.

The Story Stick installation will be celebrated at a public event and outdoor exhibition (date and location to be determined).
