Last October Toronto was abuzz with the innovative energy of the design community as the RGD Design Thinkers event unfolded. For the past 15 years, I’ve always heard great things about the Design Thinkers events and I finally had the chance to attend and see what all the hype was about. Design enthusiasts from all corners gathered to explore, connect, and learn from the industry's leading lights. While the event offered a rich tapestry of experiences, there were some highs, lows, and areas for improvement worth noting.

A brand new and groundbreaking collaboration between Scotiabank and Sports & The Arts (SATA), the Scotiabank Arena Art Collection has emerged as a testament to the fusion of sports and artistic expression. As the leading sports venue art collection curators in North America, SATA brought their wealth of experience to the forefront of this project. The collection, curated by both SATA and artists selected through an open call to the arts community, stands as a dynamic showcase of creativity and community engagement.
