Community art project will display in images what home means to Oakville residents

What does home mean to you?

Oakville residents are being invited to take part in #APlaceICallHomeHalton, a participatory community art project led by hybrid media artist Faisal Anwar.

New to Culture Days in Oakville this year, residents are asked to think about what home means to them and then share an image of it by tagging @aplaceicallhomeproject on Instagram, using the hashtag #APlaceICallHomeHalton or sending visuals to the @townofoakville Instagram account through in a direct message.

The images will be reposted as part of a growing archive that will provide a collective memory for Halton residents of what home means to them.

The visual images will also be added to a large-scale installation of photographs in motion, projected in various locations in Oakville and Halton during Culture Days.

Visit the #APlaceICallHomeHalton installation as it comes to life as a large scale one-day projection at Queen Elizabeth Park Community and Cultural Centre on Oct. 14 from 9:30am to 3:30pm. Children must be accompanied by an adult.
