The Painted Lady Project is an initiative by Our Lady of Mercy Church. Committee member Lynn MacDonald says this awe-inspiring building was built by a community of fishermen, farmers, and miners and turns 100 years old next year. The Next Great Save is made possible by The National Trust for Canada, which is a registered charity that leads and inspires action to save and renew historic places. MacDonald says to vote you just need to search “the Next Great Save.” Votes can be cast online until May 6th.
