In early January, NSCAD launched the cohort hire initiative and received an incredibly positive response from within and beyond the bounds of the NSCAD community. A diverse group of candidates applied, and from there, the hiring committees have worked assiduously to narrow the searches to a short list. As the next step in the selection process, we have extended an invitation to those short-listed applicants to address the NSCAD community and present their areas of research, creative practice and teaching.
If you are interested in attending a talk, please email communications@nscad.ca, who will gladly forward the invitation.
We all wish the search committees well in their difficult task of deliberation and send encouragement to the short-listed candidates whose work is rich and engaging.
We look forward to hearing from this talented group of artists-academics as we continue to deliver on our promised actions from the EDI Targeted Action Plan.
