A collection of immense talents from Dalhousie and beyond gathered at the Dalhousie Arts Centre this week to put together the university's Bicentennial Launch — a celebration of history, art and culture two centuries in the making.
Featuring the poetry of George Elliott Clarke, and performances from alumni and students — many from the Fountain School of Performing Arts — the event offered a journey through Dal's 200-year history and inspiration for its future.
Photographers Danny Abriel and Nick Pearce were on hand at both the rehearsal and performance to capture how it all came together.
