#Quwutsun #Indigenous #artist Charlene Johnny will lead work, beginning this week, on the largest piece of #PublicArt in the City of Duncan. Charlene’s #mural at 221 Jubilee Street will stand 44' tall & will represent the theme of thu-itsthuw tun shqwaluwun (be truthful with your feelings). Various #community partners, led by Quw’utsun Elders & Youth, joined together as the Nanum Iyus Tth'ele (Meeting of Joyful Hearts) #collective to support this project.
