Lobby of the Nanaimo Aquatic Centre

This mural aims to bring people together to combat hate. Unveiled by B.C.’s Human Rights Commissioner (BCOHRC), Kasari Govender, the mural is a direct response to the final report of the Commissioner’s Inquiry into hate during the pandemic, titled "From Hate to Hope,” which highlights the need to build inclusion and belonging in B.C.’s communities.

Co-created with Humanity in Art and with inspiration from youth from RISEBRIDGE’s IBPOC summer program, the mural is a testament to how strong and resilient Nanaimo’s community can be.
