Mural Unveiling Celebration

Please join us this Sunday, May 28th at 4pm at Harrow United Church, 955 Mulvey Avenue to celebrate the official unveiling of a beautiful new mural that can be seen as people drive or walk down Harrow Street.  If it looks like rain, bring a raincoat!  We can retreat inside for parts of the celebration if needed, but we will stay outside, if at all possible, because we can’t bring the mural in!

Mural Project Background

In 2021, a group of youth, on behalf of our region’s Young Adult and Youth (YAAY) Committee received a $10,000 Winnipeg Foundation Walking Together Grant.  One of their projects from the grant moneys was to work with an Indigenous artist to put a mural on a United Church.  YAAY’s grant team partnered with artist Jeannie Whitebird, of Rolling River First Nation and her colleague, Charlie Johnston, an experienced mural artist, as well as the reconciliation team from Harrow United Church. Harrow United is excited to be the recipient of this mural, and welcomes you all to join them at 4pm on Sunday, May 28th for conversation and bannock in their healing garden with formal program to follow at 4:30 to celebrate the official mural presentation.
