Drawings by Group of Seven artist Arthur Lismer from Dal's 100th anniversary have been discovered in the University Archives — just in time for Dal's 200th.

Representatives of Iceland's Reykjavík University — and members of the country's team in MIT REAP (Regional Entrepreneurship Acceleration Program), alongside Nova Scotia — came to Dalhousie earlier this month to learn about research and innovation in Halifax.

Young people from across Halifax came to Dal earlier this month to take part in a competition co-hosted by the Government of Nova Scotia, using public government data to develop new apps, visualizations and predictive models.

The Dalhousie Agricultural Campus Botanical Garden is the proud recipient of a “Canada 150 Garden Experience” designation, identifying it as one of 150 garden experiences across the country for Canada’s sesquicentennial.

For Dal's 200th, the Fountain School of Performing Arts is inviting professional Canadian composers to submit compositions for brass quintet as it seeks a new piece of celebratory music for Dalhousie — one that would be debuted at the Bicentennial Address and hopefully become part of future convocation ceremonies.
