“Art connects is an ongoing initiative that started in 2019 to address the role of North York Arts in Truth and Reconciliation. As we build programs, partnerships, and relationships, we continue to ask ourselves “As a non-Indigenous organization, what can we do to support the process of decolonization and build the right relations with Indigenous communities?”
Art Connects is a series of workshops, art installations, talks and tours that aims to connect the local North York Community with both the environment and the history of the land that we live, work and play on.
I-talks is part of the Art Connects Program which is under the umbrella of ArtworxTO.
NOTE: This series of workshops taking place in May are open to the public who have the interest to learn Indigenous Knowledge from Indigenous Elders, Educators and Time Keepers. Please note that if spots are limited priority will be given to North York residents.
I-talks 2022:
Our Responsibilities to Water & Land: Part 1
Our Responsibilities to Water & Land: Part 2
Indigenous Stewardship, Symbolism & Art“
