Airdrie artist Veronica Funk is making an impact with her current series of painted portraits called The Grandmothers.

The City of Airdrie terminated the State of Local Emergency (SOLE) on June 16. The SOLE came into effect on March 17 as a measure to support Alberta’s efforts to contain the risk of spreading the COVID-19 pandemic.

Sam Iaquinta, general manager of Castellano Custom Homes, and his team have created Homes for Hope, a project that includes the sale of a home with all of the proceeds going to the Alberta Children’s Hospital (ACH) and the Stollery Children’s Hospital (SCH) to assist in the care of sick children.
