A Different Booklist Cultural Centre is a non-profit hub, destination and space dedicated to the intellectual and cultural experience of people of African and Caribbean ancestry. It is the organic expression of the years of cultural activities cultivated by the independent bookstore, A Different Booklist. It is a place where invention and pioneering meet to create youth expression and intergenerational activity. It is a “green” hub in practice and design with its incorporation of innovative technology. It is a legacy project that embodies the opportunity to engage in infrastructure building, civic engagement and the creation of a destination that will inspire all Canadians and attract cultural tourism. The People’s Residence is our destination and home away from home.
