Inspiring Speakers Series: Event

Join the Illingworth Kerr Gallery virtually on April 6th @ 3pm MST / 5pm EST for the Inspiring Speakers Series* (sponsored by RBC Future Launch). The Inspiring Speakers Series 2021 is moderated by visual artist, community organizer and social activist Nura Ali, in conversation with interdisciplinary artist and educator Deanna Bowen and Dr. Karina Vernon Associate Professor of English at the University of Toronto Scarborough. Bowen and Vernon will virtually discuss their individual research-based practices, and use of archives to confront false narratives about Black people’s presence in the prairies and throughout Canada, as well as the erasure of Black people from Canadian History.

*More information about the event can be found on the Illingworth Kerr Gallery’s Instagram and website ikgallery.ca

 

Inspiring Speakers Series: Reading List 

In celebration of Black History and to promote the upcoming Inspiring Speaker Series, the Luke Lindoe Library is collaborating with the Illingworth Kerr Gallery to distribute a reading list curated by visual artist, community organizer and social activist Nura Ali. Every Friday the Illingworth Kerr Gallery (IKG) and the Library will release four (4) titles on this site, in the Friday Flyer, the Bulletin, and on the IKG Instagram @ikg_auarts.

Stay tuned for the new titles released each week! 

Welcome/Oki

We would like to take this opportunity to gratefully acknowledge that the Luke Lindoe Library rests on the traditional Treaty 7 territories of the Blackfoot people. In the spirit of our efforts to promote reconciliation, we acknowledge the traditional territories and oral practices of the Blackfoot Confederacy (Siksika, Piikani and Kainai), the Tsuut’ina (Sarcee), the Stoney Nakoda First Nations (Bearspaw, Chiniki and Wesley), the Metis Nation (Region 3) and all those who make their homes in the Treaty 7 region of Southern Alberta.
