From March 3 -April 12 the original art from Picture the Sky will be on display at the Young Welcome Centre at Evergreen Brickworks in Toronto. The exhibit opens with an art sale and story time on March 4th. I’m thrilled to have the opportunity to work with Evergreen, a national not-for-profit dedicated to making cities flourish. A percentage of the proceeds from the art sale will be donated to evergreen to support programming for arts and children.
The Brickworks feels like home. I’ve spent many hours walking in the surrounding park and Don Valley trails. Much of the artwork for my book Picture a Tree was inspired by the area, and in 2012 that artwork was also exhibited at the Yonge Centre. Looking up at trees led me to create Picture the Sky, so it feels very natural to share this new artwork at the Brickworks. I hope you can come to the show!
