Make new art connections and spark conversations! Join us for our free virtual Seniors Social program, a live biweekly series for older adults that combines conversations with art and artmaking. The AGO believes providing opportunities to experience art and artmaking increases well-being.

For this session, we will be discussing the life, work, art and activism of Christi Belcourt – paying special attention to her piece, The Wisdom of the Universe, which has long been a crowd favourite at the AGO. We'll discuss the origins of her particular aesthetic approach, her painstaking and admirable creative process and even try out some beadwork-inspired dot painting ourselves. 

For the artmaking portion of our session, you will need: black construction paper and either acrylic paints and brushes or coloured pastels.

Live sessions will contain automated closed captions.

Closed captioning is available in this recording.
