The Walden Art Club Celebrates the
City’s 125th
The Walden Art Club will be completing a very special project in the
near future.
A Mural Mosaic of the Anderson Barn will be finalized and on display at
the Tom Davies Square for the June 7th celebration of the City of
Greater Sudbury’s 125th anniversary.
It is a large-scaled mural, consisting of a medley of diverse paintings,
created by the WAC members.
The Mosaic Mural is composed of 35 canvases measuring 16”x20”, and each
canvas is a unique stand alone work of art. The mural features various
facets of the Anderson Farm’s history, and of the local heritage which
include fauna, flora, mining, and farming. When all of the artistic
works are merged they reveal a 6’x12’ painting of the Anderson Barn.
The Walden Art Club’s Mural Mosaic of the Anderson Barn will be on
display at the Tom Davies Square for the June 7th celebration of the
City of Greater Sudbury’s 125th anniversary. The Mosaic Mural will
remain at this site until June 21st where it may be viewed by the
public.
The Walden Art Club has donated the mosaic to the Anderson Farm Museum
and Heritage Society to be used as a fundraiser and all the funds raised
will assist with the renovations required to the stable building of the
Anderson Farm. The stable in time will be a wonderful place for the
artists in the area and for the community at large.
Our club opens its doors to all artist in the CGS we meet on Saturday
mornings at 9:30 At the Ben Moxam Centre on Westview Crescent in Lively.
Happy Birthday Sudbury!
The Walden Art Club’s
Mosaic Mural Causing Excitement
The Walden Art Club’s Mosaic Mural of the Anderson Barn is generating a
great deal of excitement in the City of Greater Sudbury. Not only is
it’s sheer size impressive, but the eclectic nature of this mural is
breathtaking. Each canvas is completely unique in its composition, yet
when all 35 are merged, it reveals a unified depiction of the Anderson
Barn. Keep checking this website for the on-going development of this
“work in progress”.
Early Stages
Anderson Farm Mosaic Mural

Walden Art Club Prepares to Paint the Barn
The Walden Art Club has a very special project in the works - a Mural
Mosaic of the Anderson Farm. The goal of this fundraising venture is to
highlight the rich heritage and history the Anderson Farm brings to the
community and GCS. The Mural mosaic will measure 6' x 12' - with all the
canvases painted by our members. The 35 unique works of art - each
measuring 16" x 20" - will be auctioned off, and a portion of the
proceeds will benefit the Anderson Farm Heritage Fund.
The Mural Mosaic will be on display at our Annual Spring Art Show and
Sale on April 19tn & 20th, in the Tom Davies Arena, Lively. Come and see
this work in progress! The on-going development of this project can be
monitored on this website. Stay in touch as this work unfolds.
