The Art Study Program is offered exclusively to Experiences Members and above.

On Monday, February 26, at 11 AM, Experiences Members are invited to join us for a special screening of MY BODY IS A POEM/THE WOLRD MAKES WITH ME, a debut documentary short by poet Brandon Wint. A discussion will follow. Please meet in Room 302.

The Gallery’s Art Study Program takes place every second Monday at 11 AM. These events are an opportunity to meet fellow members and take a deeper dive into the Gallery’s current exhibitions, discover works by local artists or explore a theme from art history in an informal and friendly environment.

This February, the Gallery’s Art Study Program will explore the intersection of art, poetry and film. Upgrade your membership today to form a deeper connection to the Gallery and enjoy unique art experiences!

ABOUT THE ARTIST

Brandon Wint is an Ontario-born poet, spoken word artist and multi-disciplinary collaborator, who uses poetry to attend to the joys, challenges and miracles of being alive. For Wint, the written and spoken word are tools for examining and enacting his sense of justice and imagining less violent futures for himself and the world he has inherited. For more than a decade, Wint has been a sought-after, touring performer and has presented his work in the United States, Australia, Lithuania, Latvia and Jamaica. His poems and essays have been published in national anthologies, including The Great Black North: Contemporary African-Canadian Poetry (Frontenac House, 2013) and Black Writers Matter (University of Regina Press, 2019). Divine Animal is his debut book of poetry, while MY BODY IS A POEM/THE WORLD MAKES WITH ME is his debut short documentary.
