Guerilla Art Installation Workshop Join Artists-in-Residence Popcorn
Galaxies for a fun, creative, and delightfully quirky art workshop to make your own mini guerilla art installations in and around the Mount Pleasant Community Centre! Guerilla Art is a playful way of brightening and animating the local neighborhood. It is an art process which involves installing anonymous and mysterious artworks in public areas to intrigue and delight unsuspecting members of the public. Like random acts of kindness, guerilla art installations have the potential to create magical exchanges between strangers, connect us to our community, and make our neighborhood a more interesting and lovely place to live. Everyone is welcome! No Experience necessary. All ages; children under 13 must be accompanied by an adult. All supplies will be provided.

Cover Art by Guná (Megan Jensen) A young Indigenous artist, dancer and student of Northwest Coast design. Guná is of Dakhká Tlingit and Tagish Khwáan ancestry from the Dahk’laweidi Clan (killer whale) which falls under the wolf/eagle moiety. Her family has made the beautiful southern lakes in the Yukon Territory their home for numerous generations. This young aspiring artist has always actively participated in cultural revitalization within her community through dance, song, ceremonial practises and revitalizing her community’s art form. She has practiced and studied the intricate complex work of northwest coast design for 10 years, and continues to build on her knowledge of Tlingit Formline. Guná is currently attending Emily Carr University of Art and Design pursuing her Bachelors of Visual Arts. As an artist of mixed heritage, Guná strives to enable her audience to reconsider what constitutes “indigenous art.” There are often more questions raised rather than answers when encountering paintings by Guná, only reiterating the complex cultural landscape indigenous artists must navigate through every day in an ever changing industrialized world.“Since time immemorial our people have been malleable to the winds of change, had they not done this, we simply would no longer exist. This is about telling their story, however this is also about telling our stories through art, song and dance for all the future generations to come.” - Guná

We also have opportunities to get involved with the citywide youth council. Please contact the Community Youth Worker [email protected] for more information.
