Our wide range of Continuing Education programs rarely have much in common with each other, so it’s exciting when there’s a unique collaboration between programs.

This Thanksgiving was one of those times. Floral Design instructor Yvette Nekuda and five recent graduates of the Floral Design program created gorgeous autumn-themed table centrepieces on October 10 for sale to the Mount Royal community, with proceeds to the Transitional Vocational Program for adults with developmental disabilities.

Over $500 was raised and 51 people, including MRU President David Docherty, took home a centrepiece on October 11 to brighten their Thanksgiving table.
