A Place Called Home
Shifting Narratives About Housing Justice
March 6- May 2, 2025
Opening reception: Thursday, March 6, 2025 - 4:30pm to 6:30pm
This exhibit is supported by the Changing the Conversation Project, Arts New West, the City of New Westminster and Canada Council for the Arts.
Changing the Conversation (CTC) is a three-year project that examines how public spaces and public art can facilitate a healthier discourse about housing in the community.
This exhibit offers an invitation to bear witness and reflect on how we might help to build a future where justice is not just an aspiration - it’s a fact.
The collection of analog and collage art, photographs, poetry broadsides and neon art features the work of CTC Artist in Residence Amal Ishaque, Marpole Mutual Aid Network members and Community Action Network (CAN) peer leaders from New Westminster.
