100 in 1 Day – Saturday, June 7 – Gledhill is taking part!

100 in 1 day

“What if hundreds of people united, each putting in place the changes they wish to see in their city, all on the same day?

On June 7, for the first time-ever, Toronto will host 100 in 1 Day.

This citizen-driven festival will unite people across the city to make Toronto a better place by creating acts of urban change.

These acts, or interventions, have the potential to raise awareness of urban and social issues, inspire ideas, and motivate leaders to consider new approaches to old problems.”

And, the Gledhill community is planning an intervention of our own! The project is in the planning stages and involves a permanent fence art installation in our school ground. Picture it: Parents, students and community members all coming together on a Saturday to collaboratively create a lasting piece of art that will beautify and create a sense of ownership of our shared space. 

So, calling all artists, handy persons and community organizers! If you are interested in helping to develop this exciting project or simply to help organize the execution on the day of, please contact me at nichols_andrea@hotmail.com
