  • Collingwood Days: Film Screening: Surfacing by Donna Redlickn

    Surfacing is a movement video conceived of and created by choreographer Donna Redlick, with dance interpreter Carolina Bergonzoni. The video foregrounds the body in surface-to-surface relationships to invite sensation, touch, and the proprioceptive experience as a way of ‘being in the world’ in connection to self, space, and environment.

  • Collingwood Days: Data Visualization Tree With Sophia Han

    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.
