Parkdale Solidarity Flag Mural Launch October 23, 2016

Join us to launch the Parkdale Solidarity Flag mural on Saturday, October 29, at 3pm, at Carpark 256!

The Parkdale Solidarity Flag is a symbol to help galvanize the community around The Parkdale Neighbourhood Plan.
Throughout 2015-2016 hundreds of local residents and 25 organizations contributed to the Parkdale Community Economic Development (PCED) planning project, emphasizing four overarching shared values for Parkdale: Inclusiveness, Affordability, Diversity and Equity. However, as Parkdale continues to experience gentrification, these values are at risk. The Parkdale Neighbourhood Plan proposes proactive community strategies and actions to protect affordability, inclusion, and diversity in Parkdale, while promoting collective action, development without displacement, participatory democracy, decent work, food security and shared wealth building.

Artists: PA System (Alexa Hatanaka, Patrick Thompson), and Sean Martindale
