Community Tree Mural for Womxn Paint
Based on the theme "Naturally Resilient", these outreaching branches may also look like roots or rivers from Toronto’s ravines. The Canadian red and white gradients integrate into the system, representing Rexdale’s diversity. All backgrounds grow together, connect and share, making a unique neighborhood in North Etobicoke.
Mother Nature
The mural is located on the northern retaining wall along Finch Ave W between Kipling Ave and Islington Ave.
This year’s murals will visually share authentic stories that celebrate building strength, connection and community through developing our relationship with the natural world.
