The Honourable Siobhan Coady, Minister of Natural Resources, will bring greetings at the Official Unveiling and Dedication of the One Hundred Portraits of War Sculpture on Sunday, November 4, in Victoria Park (Water St. side) in St. John’s at 2:00 p.m.

100 Portraits of the Great War project, a major visual art piece, is an initiative of Morgan MacDonald, Newfoundland’s pre-eminent sculptor. He is an award winning artist who is the recipient of the Memorial University 2016 Horizon Awards for outstanding achievement under the age of 35. This project was founded to bring together living descendants of those who served during the Great War with the Newfoundland Contingent.
