About
Visit Queen Elizabeth Park Community and Cultural Centre to view a display of ceramic sculptures made by last year's Halton Region Culture Days Artist Project.
"Harmony in Culture," is a collaborative ceramic mural project designed to celebrate cultural diversity and unity through art. The hand, a universal symbol across cultures, will serve as the foundation. This installation will feature a hand-shaped ceramic mural symbolizing creation, strength, protection, connection, and community. Upon closer inspection, viewers will notice smaller hands, each created by participants from the Halton Region, symbolizing individual contributions to the collective cultural tapestry.
The project was completed for Culture Days 2024 by Yvette Garcia-Mier, Shahrzad Amin, and Lauren Sinett and will be on display for Culture Days 2025.

The Town of Oakville is located on Treaty 14 and 22 lands, the territory of the Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation, and traditional territory of the Huron-Wendat and the Haudenosaunee. Oakville is home to many different First Nations, Inuit and Métis peoples. A vibrant and impressive community within the Greater Toronto Area (GTA), the Town of Oakville is a beautiful lakeside town with a strong heritage, preserved and celebrated by residents and visitors alike. Since the 1800s, it has become one of the most coveted areas to live and work in Ontario, with 225,000 residents calling Oakville home. The town offers all the advantages of a well-serviced urban centre with first-rate facilities and amenities while maintaining its small-town feel.
