Initiated in 2014/2015, Response was designed as a successful one-time outreach program for Indigenous youth, in collaboration with Capilano University’s First Nations Student Services. Now an annual program, Response inspires ways of responding artistically to historical and contemporary images of Indigenous cultures through a series of workshops led primarily by Indigenous artists. The program culminates in a showing of participants’ works at The Polygon Gallery.

Participation in the program and inclusion in resulting public programmes is limited to registrants. Priority is reserved for Indigenous participants. For more information, contact: response@thepolygon.ca.
