UrbanEx

UrbanEx is made up of three components: Excursions, Advocacy & Speaking/Mobilization.

Urban Excursions are an arts, culture and social justice experience. These are week long coordinated trips for teams who come from all over the world to the City of Toronto to be challenged to examine themselves and how they occur in the world and how that affects the world around them.

UrbanEx Advocacy networks agencies, corporations, communities and individuals together. As community advocates we create new opportunities to facilitate effecive social conflict resolution strategies.

UrbanEx conducts speaking and mobilization seminars, presentations and training exercises. We provide leadership to share knowledge, ideas and experience to see our entire community actively engaged with each other, resulting in effective change.(The above blurb was taken from urbanex.com basic literature.)

Gallery Arcturus

We will be standing stones up outside Gallery Arcturus this summer. Here is some info from them:

Gallery Arcturus is a not-for-profit contemporary art exhibition and art education centre located in downtown Toronto. It is funded and operated by The Foundation for the Study of Objective Art, a private charity.

The gallery is an oasis of peace in the midst of a busy city. The space has been carefully designed to provide an opportunity for uninterrupted contemplation of visual art without the pressures of commercial galleries and without the admission charges typical of other public galleries. Light, colour and proportion have been used to create an atmosphere suitable for acccessing subtle impressions and insights which are usually obscured by the impact of the urban landscape.

The gallery also provides an outstanding opportunity for contemporary visual artists to display their work without the pressures of commercial considerations. The gallery seeks to exhibit works which engage the viewer's sensations and feelings in a movement toward self-transcendence. The gallery has a view about what art is for: that art is for exploring the larger context of what it means to be human. Submissions from artists are welcome. 80 Gerrard Street East, Toronto, Ontario. www.arcturus.ca. Admission is free.
