We are pleased to announce the installation of an Art Exhibit showcasing the artistic genius of individuals with intellectual disabilities to connect community through creativity. L’Arche Daybreak will also exhibit an informative historic display spanning 40 years in Richmond Hill.

Our experience tells us that the creative arts can be a powerful means for people, including persons with intellectual and other disabilities, to express themselves, to collaborate with others, and to become more engaged in society.

On Exhibit at the Richmond Hill Heritage Centre
September 21 – December 10, 2011

19 Church Street North, Richmond Hill, ON L4C 3E6 (905) 780-3802

 

This is an exciting new partnership with the Richmond Hill Heritage Centre for our community. In addtion to the exhibit, community members from L'Arche Daybreak will be teaching classes to the public – card making, pottery painting, candle making, paper making.
