WOMEN MAKE YOUR MARK 2

MAMC is proud to present Women Make Your Mark 2 — a bold and beautiful continuation of our winter project, celebrating the creativity, courage, and strength of women rebuilding their lives in Canada.

Inspired by artists such as Helen Frankenthaler and Vivian Suter, participants were encouraged to take risks, work on a large scale, and see themselves as artists, many for the very first time. With the support of MAMC facilitators, they created powerful artworks that tell stories of resilience, renewal, and hope.

The project was filled with laughter, connection, and discovery. We are deeply proud of each participant and grateful to the TNO team for their generous support. Together, this group of remarkable women truly made their mark.
