Exhibit Change
Exhibit Change is a student-led club that aims to advocate for significant issues worldwide, including social justice issues, using art’s power as a conduit for advocacy. Furthermore, we also aim to inform the community about these issues and the steps they can take to help mitigate them within their community, if applicable. Our output is split into two sectors; one sector within the club works on relatively bigger projects. At the same time, the other completes more consistent small posts on our social media to continually and regularly inform the community and bring attention to important issues worldwide. The relatively bigger projects are split into two wings, the art wing and the research wing. Researchers and artists interested in working on similar topics are paired together and communicate with each other to determine how they would like to complete their projects. The researchers delve deep into their selected topic and compile information, developing a synopsis. This information will be combined with the artistic products of the art wing (painting, digital art, or any artistic medium the artist desires), which will also be related to the topic of the project. Ultimately, we combine the artistic and research components and post them on social media. If separated and not within the same slide, the art component is usually placed first, grasping the viewers’ attention, and the synopsis is usually found on the second slide. However, this can vary depending on the researchers’ and artists’ preferences. The other sector is similar but to a smaller extent and is more research heavy than art-heavy, allowing us to cover more information and topics we feel should be addressed.

Queen’s Soul Food
Queen’s Soul Food is a needs-based, student-driven organization that aims to support the local communities of its chapters. The organization strives to find creative solutions to, and promote awareness of local food security and issues of food waste at Queen’s University and the wider Kingston community. With the help of a team of about 70 volunteers, our main activity is to pick up un-served, leftover food from Queen’s cafeterias and to deliver it to various shelters in the Kingston area on a daily basis. Through awareness and fundraising events that we hold throughout the year, we strive to foster and build relationships with Queen’s clubs that share similar values, to promote responsible food consumption, to build bridges between Queen’s University and the Kingston community, and to raise awareness about individuals living in poverty in Kingston and in Canada as a whole.
Queen’s Events
“Wouldn’t it be cool if all the events at Queen’s and downtown were listed in one place, easy to find?” QueensEvents.ca / @queensevents on Instagram helps students develop a sense of belonging, both at Queen’s and in their communities, by promoting all upcoming events year-round. This includes Arts – theatre, film screenings, concerts, art classes – Academic – study sessions, public lectures, conferences, competitions, workshops, career fairs – and Socials – sports, fundraisers, dances, tournaments, trivia, networking nights. If you have a late birthday, you might be surprised to find out that 70% of the events happening every week are open to all ages, not just 19 plus!
Annually, we help 400+ event organizers get more “bums in seats” at their events. We also host workshops during the year for event planners to network and share resources.
@QueensEvents organizes fun giveaways on Instagram to help students feel more at-home in Kingston. Carving pumpkins is a fun fall tradition that can be a helpful study break activity, however, it can be difficult to get pumpkins home from the grocery store without a car, so QueensEvents took the initiative to deliver pumpkins to student houses. This small act of “normalcy” during the pandemic had a positive impact on students’ mental health and wellbeing. Hearing that students wanted to get into nature to recharge, QueensEvents covered the transportation for a group to attend a community tree planting event. We also gave away group tickets to the Fall Fair, The Screening Room, cross-country skiing at Little Cataraqui Creek Conservation Area, and paddling with Ahoy Rentals. For St. Patrick’s Day, QueensEvents placed pop-up garbage and recycling bins throughout the University District. This, along with a community clean-up (“if there’s less litter, maybe you’ll litter less”), resulted in positive community feedback, and kept our streets clean.
Queen’s University Taylor Swift Society
The Queen’s University Taylor Swift Society, commonly known as QUTSS, is a club that was formed to bring together individuals who have a shared interest in Taylor Swift’s life and musical legacy. With various events, including dance and listening parties, trivia nights, and baking/movie nights, our club seeks to create a community where students can bond with others over their love for Swift’s music. We aim to provide a safe space, free of judgement where everyone is welcome. With over 1200 followers on our social media platforms and over 250 members in our Facebook group, we have seen exponential growth and interest in the club over the past year. Club events requiring tickets consistently sold out within 10 minutes. With the recent increase in interest, we anticipate the enthusiasm for events will only continue to rise, opening up new opportunities for the club within the Queen’s community.

Queen’s Undergraduate Conference on Healthcare
The mission of CUCOH is to design and implement a conference that informs undergraduate students of the current state of Canadian healthcare. This is accomplished by engaging them in discussions with other students and professionals to develop leadership, inspiration, and an understanding of the interdisciplinary nature of healthcare in Canada. The objectives are to present a cohesive overview of the current state of Canadian healthcare and explore specific areas of future change, investigate global health trends and our place in them, and increase the exchange of knowledge between professionals and students from across Canada through discussion and debate, encourage student research in the sciences through a poster competition, present a broad perspective of the Canadian medical sector by introducing a range of topics that highlights the diversity of health-related professions, and initiate a well-informed and proactive generation of leaders by providing early involvement in diverse health-related professions that will shape the future of Canadian healthcare.
With our current student fee, we have been able to subsidize costs for attendees, particularly Queen’s students, allowing us to broaden the scope of the conference. For example, we were able to increase the number of workshops we run, increase the breadth and expertise of the knowledge of speakers involved in the conference, and use campus spaces that can accommodate more delegates. In this way, expanding delegate enrollment for the conference. Additionally, with the creation of our Outreach Committee in 2021, we are increasing the number of educational opportunities for Queen’s students to participate in throughout the year. For example, last year we were able to offer an Indigenous medicine-making workshop for free due thanks to our student fee. We hope that going forward we can broaden our engagement with the Queen’s community and offer a breadth of opportunities to students throughout the year.
