Mapping what matters

From workplace gender inequities to refugee family separation, this year’s Map the System finalists showed how personal connections can spark powerful insights into systems-level change. 

On March 24, a visit to the Woodland Cultural Centre was an eye‑opening experience with heavy truths, meaningful reflection, and so much learning. 

This March, the Grebel Gallery welcomes one of several pop-up exhibits this term – Shared Threads. This exhibition is presented by the Irish Real Life Festival, bringing a collection of works – from knotwork to artifacts of traditional instruments. During the exhibit's launch, the artists shared their personal connections with their heritage and how it was reflected through their pieces.
