Over 65 hands and hearts from diverse backgrounds in Guelph and surrounding areas came together to create this digital mural, while building community across differences and distances. Through an eight week online community-engaged arts program, under the visionary leadership of social artist Melanie Schambach, participants listened to stories about how community members were affected by the Covid-19 pandemic, co-created a vision for a large-scale digital mural, played with new art-mediums, and learned some new skills while working with local artists. The virus brought the world to a halt in a way that we never imagined possible.
