OUR HISTORY

75 YEARS

Since 1950, we’ve been dedicated to breaking down barriers and creating an inclusive and accessible Manitoba. This year, we proudly celebrate 75 years of our rich history and the people who have made it possible!

Our Work Began in the 1950s

Originally established as the Society for Crippled Children, we quickly grew to support people of all ages at a time when few services existed for Manitobans with disabilities. Our story is deeply intertwined with the broader history of Manitoba, shaped by the advocacy, resilience, and voices of Manitobans with disabilities.

Commemorative Graphic for 75 Years

To celebrate 75 years, we worked with Winnipeg artist , Bramwell Enan, to create a piece that reflects the exciting milestone. The design began with listening to Manitoba Possible staff who shared highlights and milestones of their time with the organization. These moments of accomplishment guided design work towards an emblem celebrating collaboration, community, and joy.

Manitoba Possible 75 prioritizes legibility and accessibility across a range of scales while remaining warm, friendly and welcoming. Colourful circle motifs echo the emphasized circles in the “i” and period of “Possible.”, while rounded lines reference celebratory ribbons and banners, and capture a sense of inclusion through their “hugging” of the number 75.

Bramwell Enan is a visual artist and educator located in Treaty 1 Territory in Winnipeg, Canada. Enan explores how sculpture, digital processes, and painting interact to embody the personal and the tacit through a process of translation and hazy inference. Enan holds a BFA (Hons.) from the University of Manitoba. They have exhibited in Canada and the United States and have received multiple scholarships and grants, most recently from the Canada Council for the Arts. View more work on their Instagram.
