Stepping Stones Across The Shield

From June 12-20, 2023, The Countdown Public Art Project presented Stepping Stones Across The Shield: a series of community art workshops co-hosted with local organizational partners who have been integral to the Countdown project since its arrival in North Hastings in 2020. In these workshops, participants created more than 120 mosaic stepping stones that now live in personal and community spaces.
