Mosaic the City Community Unity Society
~ A Community Development Programme ~


 

The purpose of the Mosaic The City Community Unity Society is to help create a world where people of all ages, from all walks of life, feel connected-in the spirit of "Community Unity"- to their neighbourhood, organization, municipality, region and the planet. We do this by creating a spirit, an initiative and an organization that brings people together in their neighbourhoods and organizations to:

  • Plan and create mosaic art pieces.
  • Record their community unity journey through written, video, photo and internet journals.
  • Celebrate their community and art building accomplishments

We also foster the creation of unity between neighbourhoods and organizational units through the creation of maps and routes guiding people to other community unity mosaic projects in their region and throughout the world.
