Annual General Meeting
Wow! 2024 was a huge year for UNIT/PITT. We found a new home, a new director, some departures, and some new faces. We’re incredibly grateful for the amazing people we’ve had the opportunity to work with this year: Al Razutis’ Gravity wins, Entropy Rules, curated by Felix Rapp alongside an original publication; three iterations of our Sound of the Sun project; Alyson Bucharest, Sauha Lee, and Kiyoshi Whitley’s Blue Greens Workers as our first exhibition in our new home; hosting our first artists, organizers, horticulturalists-in-residence art ecosystem collective; stunning garden film screenings by the inimitable experimental film collective XINEMA; just to mention a few. And we are buzzing with energy and excitement for what’s to come as we approach our 50th anniversary!
Come join the Board of Directors, Staff, Volunteers, Society Members and General Public in our Garden on August 26 at 6:30pm for our Annual General Meeting, where we’ll present these highlights alongside our Financial Statements and reports from 2024.
To RSVP, please email info@unitpitt.ca.
While the AGM is open to anyone, only members of the society can vote and be nominated to the Board of Directors. Membership is only $3!! More info on our Membership Page.
