| In
2009, a new Gingerbread Warming
House was created... |
|
...
by building wall panels to temporarily
close in the walls of the picnic
shelter in Toddy Jones Park...
...then
painting and decorating the walls...

...and,
finally, adding these wonderful
mural panels to decorate the
outside of these walls...
CLICK

to meet the
grade 12 art students at St.
Thomas of Villanova Catholic
Secondary School who designed
and built these murals...
...
and thanks to their teahcer,

with this project. |

In
2010, another group of grade 12
art students at St. Thomas of Villanova
Catholic Secondary School designed and created
textile
banners
to decorate the inside of the "Gingerbread
Warming House."
