Inviting the public into dialogue with artists, theorists, researchers, critics, educators, and cultural workers, the Gallery’s events position exhibition making as a lens through which to examine today’s issues and debates. Recognizing the public’s sense for inquiry and experimentation, these workshops, lectures, screenings, tours and other interventions ask us to reflect critically upon the ways we look and the forces inflecting our experience. Welcoming and supporting different modes of public participation, the Gallery’s programming aims to make and hold space for new vectors of interpretation and inclusion.

The event features curators, scholars and artists whose practices focus on circumpolar arts, and celebrates the late 2023 publication of Arctic Prisms: Contemporary Arts from Across Inuit Nunaat and Sápmi. The panel discussion focuses on three key facets of Indigenous life, resurgence and activism, and considers the critical role the arts can play in supporting Indigenous rights to language, land and sovereignty. The idea for for the book emerged from the Sàmi and Inuit contemporary art exhibition Among All These Tundras, which was produced by the Leonard & Bina Ellen Art Gallery in 2018 and circulated by the Gallery in Canada and New Zealand. Published in the languages of the various contributing communities, namely Inuktitut, Iñupiat, Kalaallisut (Groenland), North Sámi, as well as English, and French, it aims to generate new connections and knowledges across geographic and linguistic divides.
