Looking back at the last 6 weeks as we gear up to unveil 13 beautiful murals, and as always, we remember the people, the relationships built, the kindness and the inspiration. The tiny details, the colour of a flower, the way the light hits the water and the sound of wings as a bird flies overhead. Small hands on paintbrushes, eye contact and smiles, meaningful conversations and laughter. Really looking forward to a joyful time in Downtown Dunnville on Saturday, October 12 9am - Noon! Fun activities, free apples, live music by Mike Miron, sidewalk sakes and specials at our local, independent businesses and more!
