Reception

Join us to celebrate how the University of Waterloo, in collaboration with Microsoft, is leveraging artificial intelligence (AI) to enhance the experience of co-op and work-integrated learning (WIL) students. As Canada’s most innovative university, and a global leader in co-op, Waterloo is at the forefront of new WIL advancements using AI. This partnership with Microsoft exemplifies our dedication to breaking new ground with technologies designed to enhance the student experience.

RSVP today to be part of this exciting event!

Come celebrate community and the season with food, laughter, and great company. All UW womxn and nonbinary staff, postdocs, grad students, and faculty are welcome.

Join the Waterloo Climate Institute and GreenHouse for an event that will take participants to the Kitchener Market for a tour of the market and an opportunity to buy local seasonal veggies and food.

The work in Prairie Invasions: A Homecoming interlaces abandoned farmhouses with the history of their inhabitants and creates a moment of pause and empathy for the lives that took place in these specific sites, but also for the land that the houses are built upon. Humans are changing our landscape at an increasingly rapid rate.

Borrowing from the title of Leo Tolstoy’s historical chronicle of the Napoleonic Wars and the 1812 invasion of Russia, Sadko Hadžihasanović’s War and Piece is a similarly fragmented view of his homeland in the wake of war. 

We pride ourselves on giving all of our first-year students an entrance scholarship. This commitment demonstrates to our students that they are becoming part of a community where all are welcome and supported to ensure their success. By removing a portion of the financial barrier first-year students often face, St. Jerome's University actively commits to their academic success as they start their journey at the University of Waterloo.

"In The Mix" is an interdisciplinary exhibition that explores music of the Black diaspora. Through a site-specific, interactive installation that combines sound, music, collage, personal family photographs and archives, disc-jockeying, and experimental turntablism, representations of Black identity are explored and reimagined.

"Becoming the Poem" is an installation of landscape paintings that consider my relationship to nature and how to foster hope living in an ecological crisis.

UW Fine Arts and UWAG are proud to co-present the second of our MFA Thesis Exhibitions "kupferschmidt / kupferschmid / kupferschmidte" is a sculpture and installation-based exhibition which uses materiality and autobiography to question the role and success of self-preservation amid a disruption to identity. The works in this exhibition use materials including those associated with Jewish culture to demonstrate the paradoxical nature of preservation.

UW Fine Arts and UWAG are proud to co-present the first of our annual MFA Thesis exhibitions. "We will lose our beloveds — ما عزیزانمان را از دست خواهیم داد" is a body of interdisciplinary works which uses feminist autotheory to transcribe lived experience under the Iranian theocracy. The works highlight the complexities of migration: what self-exile feels like, along with my connection to the greater Iranian diaspora after moving to Canada in 2018.
