Fine Arts event cancellations

Due to  concerns surrounding COVID-19, and following the directives given by the University of Waterloo, the Department of Fine Arts has cancelled all events that are not vital to our academic mission for the duration of the Winter 2020 term.

The cancellations include:

  • Fine Arts Awards Day 
  • 2020 Fine Arts 4th Year Undergraduate Exhibition
  • Upcoming Life Drawing Sessions

We take the well-being of our students, staff and faculty seriously and will do our part to help stabilize the situation in our community.
