Residents are encouraged to visit the exhibition which runs through March 17 at Caledon Centre for Recreation, Caledon East Community Centre and/or Southfields Community Centre. This exhibition features student-made artwork featuring prominent Black Canadians which highlight the exclusion and erasure of Black History in Canadian curriculum. “I encourage you to check out the powerful artwork on display in our recreation facilities,” said Mayor Annette Groves. “However, recognizing Black culture in Canada does not end in February. As our community grows, we continue to take action on social topics and demonstrate awareness of important cultural initiatives”. The Town's Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) program, developed in 2021, guides efforts in fostering all cultures and communities that call Caledon home. The staff-led Diversity Equity and Inclusion Roundtable have also been working to provide social and educational opportunities to Town staff such as lunch and learns, documentary screenings, webinars and more. --------------------------------------------------- Images: --------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------- Post date: 2023-02-23 12:15:30 Post date GMT: 2023-02-23 17:15:30 Post modified date: 2023-02-23 12:15:34 Post modified date GMT: 2023-02-23 17:15:34 ____________________________________________________________________________________________ Export of Post and Page as text file has been powered by [ Universal Post Manager ] plugin from www.gconverters.com
