Understanding and Managing the backlash for Equity, Diversity and Inclusion (EDI)

Wednesday, 22 January 2025 - This session examines the roots of these issues, including feelings of exclusion, skepticism about outcomes, and fears of change. Participants will explore how to address these concerns while maintaining a clear and steady commitment to inclusion. Through practical insights, this session will help leaders communicate the value of EDI, showing how it drives innovation, business success, and a stronger workplace culture. Participants will learn how to reframe EDI as a unifying effort that benefits everyone, to create understanding and reduce opposition. The discussion will highlight several strategies, such as leveraging data, building allyship, and promoting positive engagement across teams. Leaders will leave with tools to navigate backlash effectively, turning challenges into opportunities for connection, growth, and meaningful progress. - - Event Details

Continuing Retrospective of Work by Floyd Kuptana

Tuesday, 21 January 2025 - The ongoing display of stone carvings throughout the gallery began as a memorial to master sculptor Floyd Kuptana after he passed away in May 2022. In 2023 the gallery staged a major exhibition of Kuptana's paintings, pastels and sculptures with the contribution of many pieces belonging to the artist's longtime collaborator and friend, Jean-Paul Albert. At the time curator Deborah Harris wrote: "It is still hard to imagine that (Floyd) is not here with us, working, laughing, growling. We miss him." Since then many of the sculptures have remained on display in multiple rooms throughout the four-floor gallery building, becoming part of the changing installations devised by Harris. See our website to browse through the nine exhibit spaces. - 80 Gerrard St E, Toronto, ON M5B 1G6, Canada - Event Details
