We are grateful to the City of Lowell, Points of Light, CASE, and the Spring Buskers Festival for inviting us to bring our Community Canvases to the city's local events. These collaborations started a little over a year ago, they allow us to engage residents in collective artmaking, fostering unity and shared expression.

Community Canvases serve as interactive spaces where individuals contribute to a collective artwork. This process encourages participation, reflection, and dialogue, transforming public spaces into vibrant centers of creativity and connection.

Participating in these events has demonstrated the power of communal art in strengthening community bonds. We look forward to continuing these partnerships and expanding the reach of Community Canvases to more neighborhoods and events.

If you're interested in hosting a Community Canvas at your event or learning more about our programs, please fill out this form: HERE Or contact us at: refuge@gmail.com.

Let's continue to build connections through art.
