Neighbourhood Diaries: Stories from where I live
Neighbourhood Diaries is the result of a collaboration between
artist/writer teams and children from nine Toronto community centres.
Over an eight week period participants worked together to create video,
drawing, photographic, written and other mixed media installations that
reflect the children’s experience and understanding of their
neighbourhoods. As part of the multi-disciplinary objective of the
project, the exhibition will intersect with other programming
initiatives including readings and public workshops as part of
HarbourKIDS and Young IFOA.

Cartoon City
Graphic novelists use their city’s neighbourhoods as settings for their
illustrated stories to unfold. Featuring Marc Bell, Rose Bianchini,
Michael Cho, Willow Dawson, Hyein Lee, Jeff Lemire, Seth Scriver, and
Zach Worton.

Portraits from Above: Hong Kong’s Informal Rooftop Communities
Photographs, drawings, and transcribed oral histories depict self-built
settlements on the roofs of high-rise buildings in Hong Kong by Rufina
Wu + Stefan Canham.
