The Guide and Protector

By Jae Sterling

jae sterling — We are delighted about our partnership with Jae Sterling on a new mural completed in Chinatown September 2020.

Thanks to the generosity of some wonderful Calgarians, we were able to proceed with an additional, privately funded mural project that we are extremely proud of.
The Guide & Protector by Jae Sterling will represent his vision for Black voices and Black artists in Canada. When we saw his work at the debut of his solo art show Riding Horses With White Men, we knew Jae had an incredible talent that needed to be shared with the world.
After seeing his proposal for The Guide & Protector, we knew now was the time to press on with a new and separate project that will serve as the perfect precursor to our 2021 murals.

Thank you so much to the good Calgarians who rose to the occasion, thank you Chinatown for inviting us into your community, everyone who spoke up on behalf of Pink Flamingo and those who offered their generous support - you made this project possible.
