Diversity Festival 2024 - Connections
Event description
The Peer Connections Team have carefully curated a space for exploring how we connect. Join us in Connections, an interactive and collaborative art piece that revolve around one key theme: human connections and how we make them.Â
Sweet and savoury snacks and a tea station will be provided, so drop by, contribute to any or all of the pieces and join us in igniting broader conversations about how we can foster a more inclusive society over a bite and a warm drink after a day of study and work.Â
ActivitiesÂ
- Tree of Connection: How do you connect, or how do you want people to connect with you? Write your answer on a ribbon and tie or hang it on the tree in the Scientia lawn. A timelapse film will be made of the tree as it evolves over the event.Â
- Stitched Stories: If you’ve got a bit more time, help us make a community quilt! With the fabric and fabric markers provided, draw pictures, symbols, patterns, or messages that represent you. The quilt will be sewn together after the event in a not-so-subtle metaphor for the beauty of the intersecting, diverse people and communities that belong at UNSW and in Australia more broadly.Â
- Let's Not be Strangers - a card game: If you’re feeling a little bold, then maybe our question cards will be more your speed! Find a friend, associate, or stranger and learn a thing or two about them by asking the questions on our cards that are carefully designed to push – but not cross! – boundaries.Â
Even if you don’t feel like joining in on the activities, we would love for you to come along, have a snack, and make your own connections.Â
