Student Clubs

Monthly Student-led Critique meetings.

This group offers a space for students who self-identify as Disabled, D/deaf or Neurodiverse to find community at OCAD U. We will not meet according to a particular schedule; rather, we offer a recognized group to come together in advocacy, social activities (potentially: artist talk viewings, workshops, community building activities) and exhibition/project opportunities as they arise. Most activities occur online, and we aim to provide hybrid alternatives whenever feasible if there are in-person components.

The OCAD U Muslim Student Association creates a warm environment for students to grow spiritually, engage in cross-cultural dialogue, and form deep friendships. Through inclusive activities and programs, the MSA promotes togetherness and mutual support for all people, regardless of background.

The OCAD U Jewish Club is dedicated to create a safe and welcoming environment for Jewish and Israeli students. We celebrate holidays, host social events, and work to bridge racial inequalities while fostering connections with allies.

OFAC is a collective of furry artists and other anthro-interested folk who share a passion for the artistic practices and culture of the furry fandom.

Practical Magic is committed to building member’s knowledge on practical STEAM-related skills and fostering a fun and safe environment to explore STEAM in a way that reduces expectation and perfectionism. It will aid in member’s personal growth as well as help to support advocacy on OCAD campus. In doing so, a freeing, compassionate community will be built that allows members to feel free to explore and make mistakes.

A space for creatives, faculty and community to gather mindfully and address critical issues with play and hope to transform our futures. We will meet to talk about our ideas and work on creative projects as art is a powerful tool of expression. Project Hope welcomes you to co-creation, co-facilitation is encouraged from new and existing participants. We welcome your creativity and unique gifts!

The Shoes Off Collective is a community for Asian-identifying OCAD U students and alumni to connect as friends and co-creators through art, design, identity, culture, activism and social issues. We hangout together, eat
together, make together and work towards building a supportive and connected network of creatives.
