"Giving Wings To The Dream" Calgary.

            "Giving Wings To The Dream" is a 250' by 120' mural on the east side of the old CUPS building on 7th Ave across from the convention centre. It was created  Doug Driediger.

Murals 
In 1995, he did the “Giving Wings To The Dream” on the side of the former CUPS (Calgary Urban Projects Society) building on 7th Ave SW across from the Convention Centre LRT Station that still stands today (and has never been refreshed).  It depicts a large human hand reaching up (a hand-up, not a hand-out) to a white dove that is flying off into the sky. What a better metaphor for a CUPS, a non profit society that reaches out to Calgarians whose lives are in turmoil to help them turn their lives around.
