Janet Lumb, was born in Toronto, lived in Vancouver for 10 years, and has lived the majority of her life in Montreal with all 3 cities she calls home. As a 3rd generation Chinese Canadian, artist and community organizer, Janet loves to play, explore, discover, collaborate and work with artists in multidisciplinary settings. A social activist in heart, mind and spirit, Janet is inspired by people, culture, ecology and education.  Determined to defy Canada’s geographic borders, she aims to connect artists, individuals, communities and publics in a virtual, profound and engaging way with Asian Canadian Wiki. This database of all things Asian Canadians is a way for Asian Canadians to self represent, break stereotypes and combat racism. A great believer in the chaos theory and that there is order in chaos, Janet continues taking chances in the magic of the moment.

=== Presentation, U of T Scarborough, Tues. Jan. 26, 2016===
A journey from an arts perspective as co-founder of an Asian arts festival
and the formation of the ¬¬Asian Canadian Wiki. In knowing, questioning, respecting, discovering, inquiring who we are, where we come from, and why we are here, we will know where we are going and how to better navigate this wild and crazy world.
