"Stand Up & Step Out"

This is a community project in which individuals of all ages will have the opportunity to produce images on canvas floor mats. These images will reflect their thoughts about their shoes and how they "stand up and step out" in those shoes in Canada. They will be offered for sale online and at the Station Street Gallery and Frame Shop once the process is complete.

Blank Canvas - we need your feet

Gail went shopping! We're ready!  Blank Canvas....the possibilities!
With paints, with markers, with glitter, with photography....we want your feet to tell us a story.  Footwear is part of our daily lives and for alot of us, there is that one pair of favourite shoes....mine are my Converse Chuck Taylor's...they are who I am.  I am complete when I tie up those laces.  I feel they are a way for me to express myself.  I wear them when I'm working at a photo shoot - my lucky shoes! They make me remember that here, in Canada, I can be me.   I am proud to be Canadian.  Drop by Station Street Gallery today and become part of this incredible project!
