1st Place – Inclusion BC’s 2014 Conference
Our Art Studio group collaborated on this beautiful art piece, ‘Tides of Change’ (seen on the right) to win 1st place in the province wide contest. The piece was displayed at the Inclusion BC conference in Nanaimo BC (June 11-14, 2014) and has been used on their programs and promotional materials.
The Lifetime Network Victoria Winter Art Studio Group had the opportunity to enter a piece of art into the province wide art contest for the 2014 Inclusion BC Conference. Drawing inspiration from the conference theme of “Tides of Change: Justice, Diversity and Inclusion for All”, the group worked collaboratively to create a stunning image of a tidal landscape that speaks to the diversities that we experience and that we are. Within the group of 10 artists, we are happy to share and learn from each other’s diversabilities, skills, wisdom, and life experiences. We are excited to announce that our masterpiece has been given 1st place in the contest and was featured at the Conference and in all of the Conference related media!!! We hope the piece puts a smile on the faces of those that view it, just as it did for us when we created it!
