Humber Art Galleries
2020
Humber Galleries provides spaces where contemporary art and polytechnic learning come together and influence one another. We aim to emphasize Humber College’s strategic pillars by making the gallery more accessible, innovative, and inclusive. Through increased student involvement in programming and exhibition content, we aim to create career-ready citizens.
Through its exhibitions and programming, Humber Galleries wishes to build a long and lasting relationship with the Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation and is committed to maintaining and strengthening these ties through a continued allyship. In keeping with these objectives, as well as in the spirit of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission, Humber Galleries respectfully shares the college’s Land Acknowledgement Statement here on our website and at the opening of all our public presentations:
HumberCollege is located within the traditional and treaty lands of the Mississaugas of the Credit. Known as Adoobiigok, the“Place of the Alders” in Michi Saagiig language, the region is uniquely situated along Humber River Watershed, which historically provided an integral connection for Anishinaabe, Haudenosaunee, and Wendat peoples betweenthe Ontario Lakeshore and the Lake Simcoe/Georgian Bay regions. Now home to people of numerous nations, Adoobiigok continues to provide a vital source of interconnection for all.
