St. Mary student's painting will be on display at the Legislative Building in Toronto

November 3, 2016

A painting created by Addi P., a St. Mary grade 10 art student, was accepted for The Youth Arts Program sponsored by the Legislative Assembly of Ontario. The Youth Arts Program was launched in 2012 by the Speaker of the Legislative Assembly of Ontario, the Honourable Dave Levac, to celebrate the incredible artistic talents of young Ontarians aged 12-18. Since 2012, talented Ontario youth from across the province are invited to display their works of art throughout the Legislative Building. If accepted, their art work is displayed from December through March, showcasing their creativity and diverse artistic abilities.
 
Congratulations, Addi!

This is the painting that will be displayed.
