Cedar Tea Break is a great opportunity for members of the performing arts sector to join with a local to regional Indigenous Leader and Presenter/Arts Administrator team to ask questions, discuss realities, and learn more about how you can grow relationships with Indigenous Neighbours. Each Cedar Tea Break takes place virtually on Zoom; please note that registration is required for the event.

Bi-Weekly Cedar Tea Breaks
Equity, Diversity, Inclusion, Accessibility and Decolonization (EDIAD): We all can learn more about how these lenses of understanding affect our daily interactions. Ontario Presents is offering 30 minute opportunities to stop your work routine, take a breath and consider how you can improve your awareness of all things EDIAD.
Running September to December 2024, Terri will be hosting a Cedar Tea break every other Friday at 11 am! These sessions will each feature a different theme and will have opportunities for discussion with Terri and guests.
Check out the schedule and themes below! Registration is open for every tea break so let us know now if you can make it.
November 22nd: We all have implicit biases. So what can we do about it?
December 6th: Implicit Bias – how it effects us and how we push through
