“It Takes Many Pieces” – Artists: BMHS Class of 2018 & Our House Youth Wellness Centre

Melissa Strachan from Our House Youth Wellness Centre in Shelburne, led the BMHS graduating class of 2018 students through this project. The artwork created on their lobster sculpture depicts the school colours and is created to look like a puzzle. The puzzle pieces represent the many parts that come together to create our community. The students were encouraged to leave their mark, either a symbol, image, word that represents them as individuals within their community. The inclusion of young people is important in any community, and it’s important to remind the students that will be headed off to college, or away from home, of where they come from and for them to maintain a connection to that place as well as for them to leave a legacy. Their legacy will remain on this sculpture for hopefully many years to come.
