Background
In October of 2022, the Baha’i Community of Thunder Bay held a conference called The Gathering at Fort William Historical Park, where a diverse group of people met to discuss the characteristics and needs of the community and how it can flourish. The conversations were positive and uplifting. Arts played a part that day in communicating the thoughts discussed, whether it was 2D, music or drama.

To keep this important conversation going and to widen participation, the theme “One People, One Planet, One Justice’” was arrived at. One People One Planet, One Justice assumes the inherent nobility of all human beings and the respect that each one of us deserves as we contribute to an ever-advancing community. It goes beyond labels.

Some Questions
What is community? How can we support each other in meaningful ways?
What does unity look like regardless of gender, religion, social status, wealth, and race?
What does justice look like regardless of gender, religion, social status, wealth, and race?

What does all this look like to you?
We invite you to join an ongoing conversation by submitting your response to this question through your art.
