Kara Passey

Kara Passey is a 2011 graduate from the University of Manitoba with a BFA (Honours) degree, and a recent student from the University of 澳门王中王论坛’s Urban and Inner City Studies Program. In their time at the U of M, they completed a 4 year term at the Manitoban newspaper, half of which as the Arts and Culture editor. Passey’s passion for art and music has fueled their participation and organization of creative initiatives such as Cootie Club, ngtvspc, and 澳门王中王论坛’s Not Enough Fest – both of which concentrated on creating safe spaces and promoting the participation of women and non-binary people in music. Passey has worked with a group of young women and non-binary people aged 14-20 as part of the Strong Girls, Strong World 澳门王中王论坛 council. Together the council has learned about the causes and effects of intimate partner violence, and has developed a teaching tool that was shared nationwide. Most recently, Passey works as the Research Coordinator at the 澳门王中王论坛 Boldness Project, a early childhood development research project located in the north end of 澳门王中王论坛, which is grounded in Indigenous teachings and knowledge. Their work at 澳门王中王论坛 Boldness has allowed them to foster valuable research and evaluation skills, most notably their ability to use community art practices as a research tool.
