We Must Love and Support One Another is a public art project that fosters community connection through three drop-in workshops, a large-scale temporary text-based installation, and a community celebration
From a series of workshops held in June of this year a phrase has be selected and installed as a large-scale text artwork on a chain-link fence at the entrance to Raymore Park. This site-specific installation is a bold symbol of unity and collective care.

The workshops and the art installation will take place at Raymore Park, on the grass near the parking lot. Close to the intersection of Tilden Crescent/ Raymore Drive. If you come from Weston Lions Park, you will walk along the Pam-Am path, crossing over the Raymore bridge either on foot or by bicycle.
HOW MUCH DOES IT COST TO PARTICIPATE?
It’s free! Funding has been secured from the Toronto Arts Council with additional support from Castlepoint Numa and Crayola Canada.
WHAT HAPPENS IF IT RAINS?
If it’s raining (or looks like rain is likely), the workshop will be shifted to the next day, Sunday - same time, same place!
ARE THERE WASHROOMS?
There is a portable toilet in the park.
WILL THERE BE FOOD?
Pizza and light refreshments will be provided to participants on a first-come, first-served basis.
