On Thursday, November 21, 2024, the fourth-year Kinesiology students will be showcasing their final Knowledge Translation Projects as part of KIN*3060: Human Development and Aging. Students have developed a wide range of multi-media strategies to effectively communicate their scientific findings to a general audience. Faculty, staff and students from across the Guelph-Humber and Humber community are welcome. There will be 36 projects on display.

Here is just a sampling of what our students have been working on:

  1. Can physical activity treat ADHD symptoms in youth? 
  2. Does early sport specialization improve or hinder future elite sport performance? 
  3. Do mom and dad have different influences on children's physical activity?  
  4. Do brain games keep you young? 
  5. Is creatine an important supplement for older adults?

All student groups will display their projects simultaneously in an open 'expo' style. Please feel free to come by at any point during the showcase to interact with our students, ask questions etc.  All are welcome, so bring a friend too. 

We look forward to seeing you there!

Humber Music Presents Jazz Night on Thursday, November 21, 2024, kicking off the first of the 24-25 season's Student Showcase Concerts series. This concert will feature two Humber Music student ensembles, Jazz Collective and the Humber Jazz Big Band. Audiences will be treated to an evening of music ranging from contemporary compositions to recognizable classics.  

The Jazz Collective is comprised of Humber student musicians skilled in both jazz performance and composition and focusses on developing original repertoire. This ensemble is made up of strong young musicians that are focused on deepening their improvisational skills while finding their own voices as composers. Led by Sam Dickinson, these musicians bring professionalism and polish to every performance.   

The Humber Jazz Big Band, directed by trombonist, composer and bandleader Christian Overton, comprised of 18 skilled student musicians, is one of the largest ensembles in the Bachelor of Music program. Their ambitious program will take listeners through straight ahead big band jazz to video game music, from classics of the Basie band and the Boss Brass to new Canadian compositions. From the intellectual to the soulful, there is something for every jazz fan played by some of Humber’s finest young talent!

Space is limited, so come early for a seat! Doors open at 6:30 p.m.

Neurodiversity in Nature is a free, nature-focused and arts-inspired program for post-secondary students from any school who identify with neurodivergence. We encourage the Humber community to share this opportunity with students.

Led by a neurodivergent Outdoor Educator from the Humber Arboretum, we will explore a different theme each Friday afternoon in November. Students are welcome to attend one, some, or all: 

  • Friday November 1 - Being in Nature and Preparing to be Outside
  • Friday November 8 - Sensory Joy with Nature and Art: Making a Nature Journal
  • Friday November 15 - Plants, Animals, and Invasive Species: Observations in the Natural World
  • Friday November 22 - Worldbuilding with Inspiration from Nature
  • Friday November 29 - Environmental Impacts: Reciprocal Relationships

All sessions take place from 3 to 4:30 p.m.

No previous experience in nature or arts is necessary, and all materials will be provided to participants for free.

Participants can choose to submit their art for publication in a zine that will be distributed through various organizations in the Rexdale neighbourhood.   

Where: Meet at the Centre for Urban Ecology in the Humber Arboretum. The Humber Arboretum is found behind North Campus. The Centre for Urban Ecology is the glass building with the red door (U Building).

See the location on Google Maps.

(Please note that portions of the session will be outdoors, so participants should dress for the weather.)
