Event Postponed: In light of the recent news of the 215 children whose lives were taken at the former Kamloops residential school, we have decided to reschedule this event. Now is a time for mourning, reflection, education, and learning.
We’d like to invite you all to join us for the rescheduling of the community conversation on Tuesday, July 6th at 7pm.

In partnership with the Anti-Racism Network of Saskatoon, PAVED Arts staff and board invite you to come and participate in a conversation about anti-racism in the arts.
In this 3-part series, we invite you to share, listen, and question the role of organizations, artists, arts-admin, and boards through the lens of anti-racism.
Guiding this process will be our new organizational goals drafted within our “Commitment to Action,” a foundational, yet ever-fluid document that we hope will not only hold PAVED Arts accountable to our commitments, but support our organization as we work towards becoming a more equitable and accessible community space. PAVED Arts is grateful for the members of the Anti-Racism Network of Saskatoon, Justice Noon and Jebunnessa Chapola, who have offered their time and energy to join us in this conversation.Part 3 of this series will be guided by conversations on:
-How do we respond to the TRC Calls to Action within Arts organizations?
-Diversity – Equity – Inclusion in the Workplace
-Accessibility in Arts organizations
-Zero tolerance policies for hate speech, racism, sexism, misogyny, ableism, homophobia, transphobia as well as abusive, harmful and/or discriminatory language/behaviour.
-Ways forward – Where do we go from here?
