Join us for a tour of selected works in the Outdoor Art Collection at UBC campus. Taking place during the 2022 UBC Homecoming weekend, the tours will centre on questions of home, territory and relationships to the land that UBC’s Vancouver campus occupies, which is the traditional, ancestral and unceded territory of the xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam) people. Tours can accommodate up to 25 people and spots will be reserved in advance on a first-come, first-served basis. To register, email us at belkin.tours@ubc.ca and let us know which time spot you’d like and the number of participants.
