One Billion Rising is a global campaign that is entering its seventh year, and works towards freeing those who identify as female from sexual violence and gender-based violence. This year, One Billion Rising is focusing on freeing women from oppressive systems that exist within the political, economic, cultural, and ideological spheres through dance and mobilization. This event calls on us to “Rise, Resist, and Unite” against the inequalities women survive.

Please join the Consent Peer Education Program at our One Billion Rising event: 

Date Thursday, February 14
Location North Campus, LRC Main Concourse
Time 2 p.m. to 4 p.m.

*Please note, at 3 p.m. we will begin our dance portion of the event. Everyone is welcome to join in!

Humber/University of Guelph-Humber has been committed to gender-equality and has supported sexual violence survivors over the years, and we hope to showcase that support.

Chocolate Bonbons

The Advanced Chocolate and Confectionery students will be selling handcrafted chocolate bonbons this Valentine's Day outside of Gourmet Express. 

Many thanks to all of you who completed the survey a few weeks ago. Now the Pastry Entrepreneurs have completed their research, courageously allowed the Baking and Pastry Management faculty to taste and critique their creation and now it is up to you to prove their endeavor viable. 

We are now taking pre-orders for this delicious treat. The price is $20 including HST. Please contact rochelle15williams@gmail.com or alastair.gray@humber.ca to place your order. Only 100 boxes will be made, and we have already sold about 20%! 

They also will be available outside of Gourmet Express on Thursday, February 14 between 10:45 a.m. and 1:30 p.m. (or while supplies last).

*Since these are hand-crafted confections they will not look exactly like those in the photograph. They are all made by the third-year pastry chef students.

Please note that some of the confections have nuts in them.  

The boxes have a magnetic lid and can easily be reused or recycled once empty. 

Order yours today!

This event is free to attend and all are welcome.

The Breadth of Distance
Amber Williams-King, Charlene Vickers, Chun Hua Catherine Dong, Melisse Watson, Petrina Ng, Soko Fong Negash, Shellie Zhang
Curated by: Alize Zorlutuna
Dates: February 4, 2019 - April 5, 2019

we carry continents,
cross oceans,
traverse vast distances while still.

the scent of comfort,
is also longing.
what goes unsaid,
a kind of knowing.

how do elsewheres live in the body?

in dreams?
half-remembered tongues.
in what cannot be named.

Bringing together photography, video, installation, and sculpture, these artworks shift across geographies, cultural perspectives, and time. Considering grief, longing, care and resilience, they articulate how relationships to place, representation, and belief shape who we are and how we move in the present.

This exhibition asks us to reckon with how we came to be here on this land. Whether we are Indigenous, multi-generational settlers, or recent immigrants, our current moment demands we think through how we might build mutual understanding and empathy while recognizing our many differences.
