  • Grace ~ Oshawa Mural & Art Walk

    Oshawa Art Association's Oshawa Mural & Art Walk presents "Grace" by Mary Anne Barkhouse ~ Sculptor.

    On April 7, we will celebrate International Beaver Day by sharing this bronze with you.

    "Grace" features three beavers cast in bronze, sitting on a piece of Canadian Shield granite from a quarry in the Haliburton Highlands in front of the RMG. Mary Anne Barkhouse is a nationally acclaimed artist. She belongs to the Nimpkish band, Kwakiutl First Nation and currently resides in the Haliburton Highlands of Ontario.

    We are sure that as you wander around downtown Oshawa, you will find some tasty spots for a coffee and lunch.

    Share your photo with this or any of the other downtown murals or artforms on your social media and tag us @OshawaArtAssociation.

  • Free Public Stargazing

    Join us, The Royal Astronomical Society of Canada, for an evening of free public stargazing along the north shore of Lake Ontario at Millennium Square (south end of Liverpool Road in Pickering).

    Observe the Moon, planets, and stars through our telescopes! Check out astronomy literature at our information booth, and ask us questions to learn more about the stars and planets.

    You can bring your own telescope and we'd be happy to help you set it up and aim it at the Moon.

    Everything gets underway at 6:00 pm with solar-filtered telescopes providing views of sunspots and prominences.

    Please check our website (https://rascto.ca/) for a GO/NO-GO decision based on the weather before heading to the Square.

    Please note that we make our GO/NO-GO calls a few hours before an event but, if the weather worsens, we may have to cancel or wrap up earlier than planned.

    We'll try to post updates but please use your best judgment if you're planning to join us.
