Niagara College’s Indigenous Education (IE) department has launched a new visual identity, featuring an emblem and visuals designed by Indigenous woodland-style artist Tsista Kennedy. The emblem—which will replace the current IE logo—includes a canoe and a waterfall, with a Sky Dome resting overtop. Other visuals will be used to form a mural that wraps around the Indigenous Education Centres at the Welland and Niagara-on-the-Lake campuses. “When we began the process of creating our new visual identity, it was very important for me that the artwork and the mural represent the college,” said Indigenous Education Director Leah Hogan. “By focusing on the land that surrounds us–the lush greenness of the fields, the nutrients of the soil in the farms and the vineyards, and the power of the water–we are calling to the land to connect us all together.”
