Day One (September 21) will be held at Toronto Metropolitan University<https://www.torontomu.ca/content/dam/maps/pdf/campus_map.pdf>, International Living/Learning Centre (ILC) and Day Two (September 22, 2023) will be held at the Tranzac Club<https://www.tranzac.org/>. We would be delighted if you would join us for this exciting two-day multidisciplinary extravaganza featuring presentations and performances, and topics that bring Black history, community, artistic practice, and the archive into conversation. At the end of Day Two, presenters and attendees will get a preview of MOBA's digital platform that will make Ontario's Black archival collections searchable, and publicly accessible. This event is not to be missed! Feel free to share within your networks.
