Visit the People of the Watershed exhibition at McMichael Canadian Art Collection to check out insightful photos from our John Macfie fonds documenting daily life in Anishinaabe, Cree, and Anisininew communities in Northern Ontario during the 1950s and 1960s.

When Ss spend time gazing & admiring the #collaborative artwork done by our class, it brings me so much joy! This beautiful piece was done in partnership with McMichael Canadian Art Collection & Haida artist Michael Nicoll Yahgulanaas. Ss illustrated a story using popular manga cartooning techniques.

It was nice to be back at McMichael Canadian Art Collection, this time planting trees with Kleinburg PS students this week. Thanks to the Kleinburg Old Boys and volunteers for helping the students plant the trees.

in praise of the photobook: in an age of instagram, filters and AI, it may seem antiquated; but for me it’s seductive, it’s something you can hold, it smells like a book, it has a special feel to it, it has a form and a weight, and it can be in your hands.

Attn: Toronto book lovers! 📚
