The Data Visualization Tree will allow community members to co-create art with community members and artistically visualize data points of who is part of the diverse Renfrew-Collingwood community, and what they hope to see in the neighbourhood. This artwork requires community members to add strings or ribbons of different colours to the tree to symbolize different forms of feedback. This is a project that supports the efforts of the BC Government towards the Anti-Racism Data Act. The Systems Change team will also promote a survey during Collingwood Days to gather feedback from equity-seeking communities.

Bring your chair and get cozy at Gaston Park to watch School of Rock (2003) after dusk. Please note that the movie will only take place if the weather permits.

About the Movie:
After being fired from his own rock band, a struggling musician poses as a substitute teacher at a private elementary school. After getting to know his class, he does everything to form a band with them for a competition called “Battle of the Bands.” They do everything in order to prepare themselves for the competition without anyone else discovering the real truth.
