Centennial College’s School of Communications, Media, Arts, and Design will explore the theme of Peace Building. This ties into the city’s theme of Bridging the Distance by demonstrating how creativity can create change and unify. This multidisciplinary art event at the Story Arts Centre campus draws on the power of the arts for rebuilding connections, healing, and transformation. Examining interpersonal and intrapersonal relationships and conflicts, the programming will exhibit artwork throughout the night created in collaboration by students, alumni, and staff of Centennial College to collectively envision equanimous possibilities that immerse visitors in a harmonious environment.

The programming of Peace Building provides the community opportunity for reflection on how creativity and the arts can quell inner discord, assuage interpersonal turmoil, and be a pathway to personal expression and collective freedom. How can we reduce suffering and experience more equanimity? How can we improve communication and act with more compassion? How can we demonstrate empathy in ways that our actions make ripples throughout Toronto and beyond?
