About the exhibition

Join us for Hub Talks, the closing events of NSCAD’s Design Grad Shows on April 14th, at NSCAD’s Port Campus.

Our speakers explore new, innovative methods for tackling complex challenges in today’s fast-paced, interconnected world. They will share non-traditional approaches to problem solving—those that challenge conventions and inspire fresh perspectives. Whether through storytelling, demonstrations, performances, or moderated exhibitions, they present their experiences in formats that engage and captivate our audience, moving beyond standard presentations.
