A visual exploration of welcoming communities in the Capital Regional District
What people and places create a sense of belonging in your community?
Where have you felt welcomed and included?
How are you and your culture reflected in your community?
How are you and your culture reflected in your community?
The Inter-Cultural Association of Greater Victoria is hosting free community workshops to collect photographs and stories of our diverse experiences of place as part of the Welcoming Communities Legacy project. In the first part of the workshop we’ll make individual community maps and discuss what makes a community welcoming and inclusive.
Participants will then have a chance to take their own photographs for an online community map, which will be featured along with a slideshow and travelling photographic exhibition of the whole project at a gala opening at the Cedar Hill Centre for the Arts on Saturday May 26, 2012, 3 - 5pm. Watch this space for more information on the opening, or join our e-newsletter list.
Workshops will be held throughout the region between November 2011 and April 2012,
with Kim Walker, a community development specialist in the field of immigrant integration.
Everyone is welcome to join us in this fun community project!
