The Diversity, Equity and Human Rights Services team is pleased to present our DIVERSITY CALENDAR.
This year the art has been created by local artists who self-identify as members of our diverse community, including but not limited to: indigenous, lgbtq2+, non-binary, deaf, racialized, persons with disabilities, and allies.
Many of the images featured are drawn from recent and past inclusive valentines campaigns. The goal of these images is to reflect our diverse, intersectional and inclusive community at George Brown College.
