Frederick Joseph Ross was born in 1927 in Saint John, New Brunswick. In 1944, he began his art studies with Ted Campbell at the Saint John Vocational School and in 1946 painted a large mural there of the school's annual picnic. Following studies in Mexico in 1949 with Pablo O'Higgins at Taxco, Ross returned to Saint John. In 1950, he briefly visited Mexico again, and met Diego Rivera. In 1970, he resigned his position as Supervisor of Art at the Saint John Vocational School where he had been teaching since the 1950s, to devote his time fully to painting. Although he had exhibited widely since the 1950s, the 1993 Beaverbrook Art Gallery retrospective, The Art of Fred Ross - A Timeless Humanism, secured his reputation nationally. In 2002 he was made a Member of the Order of Canada.

Shining Horizons Therapeutic Riding Association (SHTRA) CRA Charitable Registration number 827716044RR0001was established in 1996, and was born out of the need of a mother in Saint John, who was looking for an activity to enhance the life of her young child, who was born with cerebral palsy, for whom therapeutic riding was discovered to be the best activity. We are a volunteer-based, registered charity affiliated with both the Canadian Therapeutic Riding Association (CanTRA) and Equine Canada. We operate from our Equine Therapy Center here in Saint John, NB
Our mission is to create experiences for persons with disabilities to enhance their physical, social and emotional well being. Shining Horizons, and the volunteers who support our program believe that all children, regardless of their abilities, deserve the opportunity to develop personally, physically and socially to their fullest potential. Equine therapeutic riding offers this opportunity.
