Faces of Fort McMurray

The new Big Spirit project has been launched online. Check it out and see a few familiar faces.

Click here for a direct link to Ronil Patel's story. I had the pleasure of meeting and working with this young fellow a few years ago through the Open Studio program at the Haxton Centre, I am so please to see that he is getting highlighted within our region - he truly is a local asset. Congrats Ron!
