In this short introductory workshop, we will explore how this framework can allow you to perceive the world through the lens of others, build deep empathy and generate impactful solutions that reflect the voice of your users. Regardless of your background... we are all designers!

Join our session and discover this valuable approach that will allow you to define and understand the real problem to be solved in any context or situation that involves humans. No matter how simple or complex your challenge is, human-centred design is a wonderful tool to guide your innovation journey.

Join the Lakeshore Grounds Interpretive Centre for free, drop-in paint nights every Wednesday evenings in June from 4:30 p.m. to 6 p.m.

The heart of Our Community Rocks is to spread kindness, celebrate community, and support the environment.

Paint your rocks with a message or picture that demonstrates all the ways that our community rocks! These could be values such as nature, friendship, togetherness, hope, strength, or innovate your own to express what is important to you as a community member and what values you believe are important to the Lakeshore Grounds community.

The painted rocks will be on display from May through June 2022 to demonstrate the creativity, kindness, and innovation our community holds. After the display is complete, rocks will be carried to the shore to restore and rebuild the shoreline, contributing to sustaining the natural and built environments we share. We welcome all ages, skills levels, and creativity to contribute to the community mosaic project.

Together we create; build; restore.
