Virtual World vs Real World

Virtual World, Real World Today’s younger generation is growing up across two spaces at once: the world we physically experience and the world we encounter through screens. How do these two realities shape identity, relationships, attention, belonging, and the way we see ourselves? Can we still draw a clear line between what is “virtual” and what is “real”? At Auravista Gathering 6, we’ll explore these questions together, not to reject technology, but to better understand what it means to grow up between two realities.

The Toronto Artist's Way Meetup Monthly Meetup

The purpose of the group, based on the book The Artist's Way by Julia Cameron, is for people to meet and talk about their artistic challenges in any field (painting, writing, music etc.) and encourage each other to break their creative blocks and fulfill themselves in their art. If you find people who are sympathetic, you may want to form your own group, meeting regularly to explore the book and supporting each other in their artistic journeys. I have gone through 2 such clusters and can say that it is a very powerful experience. Why not come to a meeting and see for yourself?

2026 CBC Massey Lecture: Housing Inc.

{ SOLD-OUT } Since 1965, [CBC IDEAS](http://cbc.ca/ideas) has broadcast the Massey Lectures, exploring the ideas that make us who we are. We attend the Massey Lecture every year. **Housing is not a luxury. It is a requirement for human existence.** In the 2026 CBC Massey Lectures, **Leilani Farha**, *global director of The Shift and former UN special rapporteur on the Right to Housing*, reckons with a crisis engineered by governments and perfected by financial firms. In her first Massey Lecture, “Home,” she explores how our homes shape our sense of dignity, identity, and security. Because home is so fundamental to our lives, she argues, our housing system is inextricably linked to the question of who lives, who dies, and who counts. **Ticket link here: ($26-$50) Any seat on any level is a great seat!** https://www.rcmusic.com/concert/the-2026-cbc-massey-lectures-housing-inc-456801 https://ihrp.law.utoronto.ca/ihrp-alumni-spotlight-leilani-farha https://www.cbc.ca/radio/ideas/how-to-get-tickets-to-leilani-farhas-cbc-massey-lectures-9.7256001
