"Given paint and brushes, just imagine what hundreds of kids would do in a prestigious downtown office building." And that's just what happened. On May 9th, Mrs. Corrigan's Grades 4/5 attended the unveiling of "the Children's Capi- tal," a mural by students from Ottawa area schools, in Constitution Square. The class contribution to this 32 by 12 foot mural was an 8 by 6 foot section of the Parliament Buildings, Centre Block, done in acrylics on canvas. The eight sections that comprise the mural will en- hance the lobby of Tower I of Constitution Square until Tower II is finished. Upon completion of the building, the art will be donated to the Children's Hospital of Eastern Ontario (CHE0).
