This year's honorands include an outspoken leader of inclusive design, one of Canada's most influential First Nations artists, a Canadian telecommunications icon, a leading supporter of Canadian arts and culture and one of the founders of Black History Month.
On June 9, OCAD University will award honorary doctorates to five remarkable individuals who have been leaders of change, having made a direct impact on arts and culture in Canada and worldwide.
"We are excited to honour these inspiring individuals who have left indelible marks in their respective fields, making positive change possible," says OCAD U's President and Vice-Chancellor Ana Serrano. "These honorands all share the same exceptional passion and commitment to driving meaningful, long-lasting impact that we encourage at OCAD U."
The honorands will join more than 700 students from OCAD U's three faculties and Graduate Studies who will be receiving their diplomas at Roy Thomson Hall.
