"Connect The Blocks" at Legacy Art Gallery and Cafe

Connect the Blocks is a community-based exhibit that invites you to map

your connections to other community members by drawing or writing on one
of our colourful paper blocks. We invite you to create and then display
your block alongside those produced by other community members. It is our
to goal to bring into being a community-created mosaic.
Connect the Blocks provides an opportunity for the community to
collaborate, connect through creative expression, and facilitate a place
for shared experience through discussion, participation, and reflection
upon how the activities of one individual touch upon the community as a
whole. Connect the Blocks is an outgrowth of a course highlighting the
practices of community-based exhibit design led by the Williams Legacy
Chair, Dr. Carolyn Butler-Palmer, of the History in Art Department at the
University of Victoria.

The Legacy Art Gallery and Café is located at 630 Yates St, Victoria, and
