We are really excited to partner with North York Arts and No Strings Theatre to present a pop-up exhibition during the Walk Together Children event on Oct 14th at 3pm at the Toronto Centre for the Arts, presenting the artworks from our Repainting Perceptions workshops.

More information: http://www.northyorkarts.org/

Walk Together Children: Musicians, dancers, and other artists from Toronto’s African, Jewish and Shia Ismaili Muslim diasporas unite in a joyful sharing of their cultural traditions.

Repainting Perceptions was a photo and painting workshop where residents from the Flemingdon and Thorncliffe Park communities had the space to share their stories, challenge religious and cultural stereotyping, and break through social isolation.

Funded by  Inspirit Foundation.

Art Ignite has some exciting and fun workshops in September and October as part of our Open Studio program! Join Tasneem Dairywala and our guest artists for our fall workshops. All levels are welcome, especially beginners! All materials are provided!
