A UWSA segment of the From Behind the Mask quilt is now installed at the school, next to the Melville Café entrance! These blocks are authored by members of the UWSA community, tying their stories back to the site of the school. 

These 18 stories have been contributed by: Nicole Rak (Cambridge), Vic Mantha-Blythe (Edmonton), Janet (Toronto), Brenda Reid (Kitchener), Marisa (Wainfleet), Jasmine Z. (Toronto), Anonymous (North York), Alex and Hannah (Vancouver), Adele (Cambridge), Winston Yew (Cambridge), Elizabeth (Toronto), Jennifer Chen (Vaughan), Brendan Lacy (Kitchener), Mayuri (Stamford), Nathanael (Waterloo), Paridy Family (Brantford), Shanzé (Maple), Natalie and Jonas (Toronto). 

Visit the project website to find out where else you can see the quilt and how to participate. Quilt block-making ends April 30, 2021.
