Looking back to a Fall semester in residency at Emily Carr, it was a privilege to be welcomed into the heart of this passionate place, to explore with the staff and students the culture and community of this school of art and design, and to teach our class on the Art of Place. A thought provoking experience, how do we connect the activities of an art institution to the city, how do we teach about place and people? What do we hope for the future of our art education? A new chapter of work begins and this was a wonderful place to start, thank you to everyone who hosted us throughout Vancouver, we look forward to returning.

A special thanks to Cameron Cartiere and Cissie Fu for creating the opportunity and Mustaali Raj and Nick Bone for sharing their professional insights with the class.
