Oshawa Art Association is pleased to share this art form or the week, to see it you will have to enter the RMG and go to their garden. The gallery is open Tuesday to Sunday from 10 am to 4 pm
RIVER TREE/BRANCH is a Bronze | 6.2m long x 1.98m wide x .85m high
This sculpture consists of a 24' bronze Ironwood tree lying on its side, its position due, perhaps to high winds, or the ravage of time. River Tree/Bench’s ‘curved “spine” — the juncture from the roots has protrusions reminiscent of a backbone — and delicate root system, speaks to a sublime beauty in nature that can only be truly appreciated through a sympathetic understanding of what has been lost. River Tree/Bench was selected by the Jury Committee of the RMG

The Red Shoes are back!
If you’ve joined us in the past, you may remember the powerful image of the red heels. This year, we’re bringing that symbol back- this time in a more personal way. We invite every participant to wear red shoes during the walk, in any style that speaks to you. Whether they’re sneakers, flats, boots, or heels, your red shoes will help amplify the message: we walk in solidarity with survivors and stand against gender-based violence.
Why Red Shoes?
Red shoes have become a powerful global symbol in the fight to end gender-based violence. Inspired by artist Elina Chauvet’s installation “Zapatos Rojos” (Red Shoes), which began in Mexico to honor the memory of women lost to femicide, these striking red shoes represent both the absence and the voice of those who have suffered. Each pair stands as a silent witness to pain, loss, and injustice—but also to resilience, resistance, and the demand for change.
By wearing or displaying red shoes today, we walk in solidarity with survivors. We acknowledge their stories, we honor their courage, and we commit ourselves to a world free from violence, where safety, dignity, and justice are rights for all.
Let’s Walk Together
Support a great cause. Celebrate resilience. Take a stand against gender-based violence.
