TOMORROW is the big day! We're excited to announce

TOMORROW is the big day! We're excited to announce the incredibly talented Ruben "Beny" Esguerra (@newtraditionmusic) as our featured performer as we celebrate our Graduation 2023.

Ruben "Beny" Esguerra arrived as a child to Tkaronto (Toronto, Canada) from Bacatá (Bogotá, Colombia) as a political refugee with his parents, who were involved in cultural work and human rights activism. Today, he is a two-time JUNO nominated multi-instrumentalist/producer, spoken-word poet, arts educator and community worker.

In 2021, he was chosen as the laureate of the 2020 Ontario Arts Foundation Arts Educator Award. Recently, songs–from his 2022 JUNO nominated album Northside Kuisi–have been nominated for collaboration of the year at the 2022 and 2023 International Indigenous Hip Hop Music Awards and have won Music to Life's Hope Rises II songwriting contest and international call for songs for social justice. Most recently, he received the 2023 Mayworks Artist Award for Excellence in Contribution to the Labour Movement.

Beny is a PhD (ABD) candidate in Musicology/Ethnomusicology specializing in Colombian traditional music and Hip Hop culture.

We're ready to be inspired and uplifted as we honor our graduates. Together, let's embrace new horizons and witness the extraordinary as they rise beyond limits!

On September 23, 2023, our friends at @mothersofpeacerp , along with partner organizations, communities impacted by gun violence, and supportive allies, marched the streets of downtown Toronto and held a demonstration at Queen's Park.

The goal of this march is to raise public awareness regarding the far-reaching consequences of gun violence on mental health and community cohesion, while also combatting disinformation. Community support is invaluable as we persist in the mission to urge all levels of government to take meaningful action against gun violence.
