Photographer Sabah Rahman follows BIPOC, non-binary artists at O'Connor Community CentreAn animation gif shows a group of artists who received training from Next Generation Arts and worked on a mural inside the O’Connor Community Centre in Scarborough. It's to be unveiled Oct. 1.
The mural is part of the City of Toronto's Cultural Hotspot Projects, a program that showcases local artists and community organizations, and engages the public in free public art and community projects. But all that heavy industry of the past has left a mark on this Scarborough neighbourhood's landscape.
The O'Connor Community Centre, seen below, is the home of the VIEWS program, It serves the Golden Mile community as a gathering place and is located a few blocks away from Eglinton Square. Erum, 21, moved to the Golden Mile neighbourhood with her family during her high school years. She met Claire Forsyth, 20, below right. The two friends hang out weekly, often in each other's homes and also outdoors in locations like the Edge Park opposite O'Connor Community Centre.
