Our first Together in Community mural painting session was a vibrant success; students, staff, and faculty united to fill the DC Fishbowl with a myriad of thoughtful designs that reflected their values. Each bold brushstroke contributed to a unique story that will ultimately form our growing campus mural.
Now, we're keeping this creative energy alive! Join the EDI-R office and Davis Centre Library for our second painting session on Thursday, December 4th, 2025 from 9:30 AM to 4:00 PM, as we continue transforming the mural into a living symbol of unity and belonging.

See you there!
