Sonny Atkinson
First we would like to thank City of Toronto's Graffiti Prevention Project in addition to Scaddincourt Community Centre and the youth headed by the artist Ian Kamau for bringing this Mural along with its story to life.
This Mural was created to honour the community work of Sonny Atkinson who was a long-time resident of the community.
Sonny dedicated his time to make this neighbourhood a better, safer place by settling disputes, improving street lighting and breaking down unnecessary walls in the community.
He was also instrumental in making Alexandra Park housing project into a tenant-run co-op. The Atkinson Co-op was named after Sonny Atkinson for his contributions to this community.
