DIVERSE SPACES is a conference aimed at bringing together a diverse range of academics, community leaders, culture/heritage workers and students to discuss multiculturalism in Canadian public cultural sites and institutions. Conference papers draw on interdisciplinary fields to interrogate the spaces, the structures, the goals, the practices, the people and the processes of public cultural and heritage spaces on local, community, national and international scales. Presenters will investigate the negotiations, relationships, compromises, conflicts, successes or failures that emerge as new spaces are established, and as old ones are reconstituted or rethought.
