During this reception, Belmont CEO Maria Elias thanked all those involved in making the project a reality. Local councilor Kristyn Wong-Tam was in attendance, and presented a wonderful speech commending the staff and residents of Belmont House in this endeavor. The group enjoyed snacks and took their time taking in the variety of work, and reading each participating artists' bio and about the work.
It was a particularly special moment to see the participating artists see their work and name on display in such a professional exhibit!
