Unity Through the Arts: Juried Exhibition 2025 Opening Reception and Awards Ceremony

Oct 16, 2025, 6:00 PM - 8:00 PM

Come together to celebrate cultural diversity in Durham Region!

Cultural Expressions for CHANGE Inc., in partnership with The Robert McLaughlin Gallery, presents the exhibition “Unity Through the Arts”. This juried art exhibition features artists from Durham Region and the surrounding area.

This year’s theme celebrates cultural diversity—not just as identity, but as the lived traditions, creative practices, and community expressions that shape how culture is shared, interpreted, and passed on. We are seeking artworks that explore and honour diverse cultural experiences, including but not limited to: rituals, storytelling, textiles, food traditions, clothing, language, craft, spiritual practices, and intergenerational knowledge. We also welcome works that reflect lived experiences shaped by migration, displacement, diaspora, or community belonging.

Cultural Expressions for CHANGE Inc. is accepting online artist registrations now until October 3, 2025. Click here to register.

This exhibition is presented in partnership with Cultural Expressions for CHANGE
