2021Diversity CalendarThe Anti-Racism, Equity and Human Rights Services team is pleased to present our Diversity Calendar.
The art has been created by local artists who selfidentify 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.
