Canadian artists from diverse communities have been at the forefront of issues involving equity, representation, and inclusion. Where are we when it comes to social justice in the arts and beyond? What are the most effective ways to be an ally for oppressed communities? How does ageism fit into this discussion?
Inclusion: Where Are We? will be moderated by Steven Loft, Vice-President, Department of Indigenous Ways and Decolonization at the National Gallery of Canada.
