Artist of the Month - March 2026
Kam Yuk Wong
Life in Hong Kong was hectic and even after moving to Canada, things remained busy right up to my retirement.
After retirement, I’ve finally picked up my paintbrush again. It’s been nearly ten years since I met up with friends at the 55 Centre to connect, and I’m enjoying my retirement and painting.
I find myself thankful for these connections and to our community.
