Hidden Tapestry Meeting

Our next meeting has been scheduled for March 30 at 7 p.m. at Start Me Up Niagara. Please come and share your thoughts, ideas and vision for Queenston Street. Now that we have an actual location for the mural, we can really start to visualize what we would like to have happen.

Spread the word!

Exciting News!

It is official: we have a location committed to Hidden Tapestry. Burtnik Printing Inc. has agreed to donate their wall for the mural project. Thanks so much to Mike and Kathy for your generous support and your willingness to give back to the community in such a meaningful way. We look forward to working with you further and bringing new colour to the walls of Queenston.

Brainstorming Meeting

Thanks so much to the enthusiastic bunch who came to the first Community Brainstorming Meeting on Wednesday. We had some great discussion about what we would like to see on the walls of Queenston Street. For full meeting notes, visit our notes page.

Out of our meeting, we had three ideas emerge as potential themes for the mural.

1. People helping people

2. A Queenston Street slogan

3. New beginnings/new starts

This was a great start. We will continue to brainstorm and gather community input for the rest of this month. All the ideas will then be brought before the "Tapestry Team" who will make the final decisions as to what will be painted.

To make your submissions for who you would like to be on the Tapestry Team, please contact me or leave a comment at the end of this post. The Tapestry Team will be chosen at the end of March with our first meeting in the first week of April.

I am really excited about this project. How about you? What are you thoughts? What would visually represent the three themes that were identified? What positive slogan would identify Queenston Street? What do you want Queenston to be known for? Leave your thoughts in the comment section.
