Beyond Sight Showcase May 21, 2025

This was an interactive exhibit where you could explore different booths, engage with presenters, and learn about their hobbies, creative interests, and entrepreneurship. I had a display of over 15 of my paintings and was available to share how I paint.

Thank you to all that attended and stopped to check out my work.

Thank you to everyone that stopped to view my art at the NOA Indoor Artwalk. It was a lot of work, but I thoroughly enjoyed sharing my art and I hope to add more events like this in the future.

Transitioning to alpine skiing, she achieved remarkable success at the 2010 Vancouver Paralympics, medaling in all five events, including gold in Downhill, despite competing with injuries. A passionate advocate and mentor, Viviane's extraordinary accomplishments and dedication to inspiring others make her a celebrated inductee into the Alberta Sports Hall of Fame.
