Need a study break? The Ryersonian brings you a roundup of campus events this week.
For the creative:
Get involved with Social Justice Week with a hands-on interactive canvas making workshop at Stitch a Home: Social Safety Net and Homelessness on Tuesday evening at 5 p.m. The workshop will be an interactive experience with guest speakers. Learn about the social safety net while decorating squares of canvas to add to an even larger art project.
For the documentary lover:

For the art aficionado:
“Toronto-Street Level” is a photographic display of what Toronto looks like from a disability lens. It is on all week at the Credit Union Lounge beside the HUB cafe. The exhibit was a part of last year’s Ability Arts Festival and was also displayed at 2012’s Nuit Blanche. Learn more about the featured artists in this exclusive opportunity here.
