Project Description:
Creative Collisions is an Algonquin College project run through a partnership between the Centre for Accessible Learning, Student Support Services and the MakerSpace that aims to “transform spaces throughout the college to allow for the creation, expression, and showcasing of art and creativity on campus”.
As project management students we are responsible for the planning and execution of the year-end Creative Collisions Presents: Art Showcase which will feature the artwork of 30-40 Algonquin College students (and other Algonquin College community members) at March 29th 2023.
At the core of Creative Collisions is a “sense of inclusion, respect and learning,” by creating “opportunities of dialogue, skill-sharing, and art-making between people of different socio-economic backgrounds, ages, cultures and abilities”. The goal of this project is to “promote mental health and resilience, and contribute to a sense of community, belonging, and a more inclusive culture within the college”.
