Sharing Hamilton's neighbourhood history through Art
Hamilton itself has so many unique neighborhoods that all developed over the years with their own stories and cultures. Part of what makes Hamilton unique is the way that these cultures have remained so individually strong while still integrating together to make Hamilton the amazing place that it is. I love that Hamilton has approved some mural paintings on Concession, Main, the bridge overpass at Victoria and Stinson, etc., as they way they visibly transform the areas into instantly more beautiful and more welcoming atmospheres, and think Hamilton should adapt this idea by commissioning more murals but ones that specifically tell the history of each of its unique neighborhoods and districts. It can be on a prominent city area and when someone views the art, they would understand why we call each neighbourhood what we do, and what the history is that built that neighborhood up in the way that it did. Telling Hamilton's story through our art is an incredible way to connect with our new and next Hamiltonians.
