Reflecting on my visit to Waterloo CI (@WCIinfo) earlier this Pride Month. All students belong here in @WRDSB – they are all beautiful including each and every member of the 2SLGBTQIA+ community. Let us remember #Pride celebrates that beauty! #WRDSBPride @WCIart

Thank you @WCIart for the validating Portrait Tone workshop you ran for the Black Students' Association this week @WCIinfo. Students were excited to make a paint tone that matched their own skin colour and can't wait to find their own canvases in the final exhibition.
