Hosted by the Office of Indigenous Relations, this one-day celebration of Indigenous heritage features vendors, dancers, and singers from the Waterloo region and beyond.
Abraham Oghobase: Notes to Self
Abraham Oghobase investigates the ways that photographic images shape memory and history. The artist’s mixed-media installation Onoriode (Who Knows Tomorrow?) references both his middle name and its translation from the Urhobo language. Exhibited in context with the large-scale print installation Notes to Self, these recent bodies of work are made in response to the tensions inherent to both the personal and historical archive.
Laura Moore: Handheld
The multidisciplinary artworks in Handheld are rooted in Laura Moore’s fascination with obsolete technology and her commitment to repurposing materials. Having established a reputation for carving 1:1 scale vintage computer monitors and boom boxes out of stone, over the last few years her practice has expanded to include the making of quilts and mosaics.
Knit/Crochet Stress Buster Drop-ins
If you love yarn crafts (knitting, crochet, etc.), and would like to take a yarn break, have fun, connect with other yarners, enjoy a cup of tea, and indulge in your craft with like minded members of our community, then our Yarn Drop-in Stress Buster Sessions are for you!
Introduction to Crochet
Make this cozy beanie and learn basic crochet knowledge and skills.
Science Grad School Fair
Join us for an in-person Graduate School Fair to have all your questions answered by faculty members and admissions experts.
Black, Indigenous and Racialized Students' Writing Café
The Black, Indigenous and Racialized Students' Writing Café is a social writing group. Unlike traditional peer feedback-based writing groups, we don’t read each other’s finished writing: instead, we write together to create a community of writers who can cheer each other on during what is often an isolating, difficult journey!
