Inspiring Possibilities con- tains over 60 pho- tos of people sup- ported • by Community Living agencies through- " out Ontario. The exhibition illus- trates how people with an intellectual disability are rejecting life in , an institution and are leading fulllives inthe community, with the support of Community Living. PhotoSensitive photographers travelled to 25 Community Living agencies through- out Ontario, from Toronto to Thunder Bay, Renfrew to Essex County. The inspiring images show people lead- ing far more inde- pendent lives than would have been possible only a few short decades ago. • Photos include people at work, at home, at camp- and at play, being cared for and giv- ing back to the community through volunteer work. Each one is a testimony to how Community Living inspires possibili- ties. :Inspiring Possibilities will be showing at the Allen Lambert Galleria in Brookfield Place, 181 Bay Street, Toronto from April 7 to 17. Admittance is free. The show will then travel around Ontario, visiting the towns and cities of the agen- cies that are fea- . tured within it. More details can• be found at www.photosensi- tive.comand www.cormu- nitylivingontario.c a. There are over 100 Community L i v i n g Associations in Ontario providing service and sup- port to people with an intellectual dis- ability. Our mis- sion .is that each person has the opportunity to achieve their goals with support that maximizes their independence and ensures they are valued and partici- pating members of the community. PhotoSensitive, a not-for-profit collective of pro- fessional photog- raphers, has been using the power of photography to bring about social change for almost 20 years. Previous exhibitions . have covered topics such as homeless- ness, AIDS/HIV, child poverty and cancer. The organization draws upon the tal- ents of dozens of award-winning photographers, all of whom donate their time and cre- ativity. The annual Scouts' soup and sandwich day was last Saturday. The Beavers 'took time out to check the soup before the crowd arrived. Shown, from the left, are Jacob Smith, Nathan Barger, Charlie Schumacker, Isaac Smith, Heather Barger a Beaver volunteer, and Braden Snowden.The boys declared the soup was "mmmm good".
