Point of View Lunchtime Talks

Individuals are invited to experience exhibitions at The Joan and Martin Goldfarb Gallery on their lunch break. A dynamic in-gallery conversation will be held that stems from the interests of our speaker and one of the artworks on view.

This week’s gallery talk will feature An Ocean to Livity with Allyson Adley.

Allyson Adley develops educational programs that bolsters the work of youth-led and youth-serving organizations that are working within mediums of hip hop, music, and performance. The programs she designs provide enriching arts employment, mentorship, and professional development experiences that help artists build and sustain their practice. For the Toronto iteration of Charles Campbell: An Ocean to Livity, Adley has been integral in developing the poetic component, inviting poets to co-facilitate the expansion of the Black Breath Archive and to create poetry in response to their experiences.
