Tariq Hassan Gordon was a child of the art community in London, Ontario. His parents, Jamelie Hassan and Dave Gordon, as well as their future life partners, Ron Benner and Dorene Inglis, are artists, as well as many of their friends.

At the height of the COVID-19 pandemic lockdown in July 2020, Tariq working with Ron and Jamelie re-envisioned the Embassy Cultural House (ECH) as a virtual art space and website to re-unite the arts community from the ECH era (1983-1990). Visit his website for more information. You can also read about Tariq growing up in the London Arts Community.
