A new art program offered by the SHARP Foundation is providing an extra boost of confidence for its residents who now have the chance to showcase their creative talents and connect with community members.

The program called ‘Free Form’ was inspired by the COVID-19 pandemic to ensure Calgarians in need of housing and mental health support could find a greater purpose and avoid living in isolation.

All of the proceeds go directly to the artist and art sales will continue on the final Sunday of every month at the Hillhurst Flea Market. A new program by the SHARP Foundation is helping some Calgarians find community and purpose through art. Wendy Lees is the art facilitator for the SHARP Foundation and teaches classes on Tuesdays and Wednesdays.
