What makes newcomers and long-term residents feel welcome and safe? How do we all make others feel welcomed and safe? How do we create inclusive spaces where everyone can participate?

This conversation builds upon the Welcoming City Standards and Strategy.

The evening will open with guest speaker Kemi Craig, who is an interdisciplinary artist, previous City of Victoria's Artist in Residence, and currently works with BC Black History Awareness Society and REP Here in Canada.

A facilitated group discussion will follow, inviting community members to share experiences and ideas for shaping more welcoming and safe civic spaces.
