Date

March 2023 — September 2023

Now in its second year, We Got This!, is a multi-disciplinary community arts program in collaboration with Meeting Place, PARC communities, and in partnership with Parkdale Queen West Community Health Centre. The exhibition explores the intersection between transformative justice principles and art, while touching on themes of grief, medicine and healing within transformative justice practices and experiences.

The program explored art and ceremony as tools to support individual and collective grief. This program is the vision of Rittenhouse: A New Vision, in partnership with Parkdale Queen West Community Health Centre. This collaborative art installation was created by participants in the Parkdale community.
