------Soul of the City Grant ------
Wow! Laurie and I presented last night at Soul of the City event. Our project, with our fabulous partners, The Lutheran Church of Our Saviour is Acadia Grows: Art and Garden Come Together!
There were 7 other incredible projects presented and we thought it would be so hard to choose the five winners. Its was inspiring to hear all their project ideas!
We didn't make it to the top 5....but at the end, Calgary Economic Development announced that all the projects were so compelling that they felt all 8 should be funded!
So.... we are delighted to announce that, with our partners, The Lutheran Church of Our Saviour, we are hosting a fabulous community block party at the garden and inviting all that come to help paint a multicultural mural. We are planning for August 9th. Thank you Soul of the City! Thank you Calgary Economic Development!
More details to come soon! Thank you to everyone that supported us in this project and encouraged us to try!
