The Story Behind the Wall: The Skitsofrenis Mural at EQUALS

Some walls just hold up a building. Others hold a story. Ours does both.

We were lucky enough to host Greek artist Kostas Louzis, known as Skitsofrenis, who travelled all the way from Kalamata, Greece, to paint a mural across three sides of our new campus on 95 Currie Street.

We've always believed education is about people first: their potential, their partnerships, and the hands that support them along the way. It was moving to see those ideas reflected back at us on our own building.

🧱 North: Education as a pathway to human potential
🧱 East: The world of humanity has two wings
🧱 South: The hands that made us were always praying
