The series of temporary public artworks in the Don River Valley Park creates a new hub for art in Toronto. Local, national and international artists have created projects that speak to the many histories and present-day realities of the ravine and its surrounding communities – looking at the land from ecological, cultural, industrial and Indigenous perspectives.
Throughout the series, visitors may come across sculptural installations, murals, billboards and dance or sound performances. Each project has its own timeline, with some lasting many years and others for just a day. We also offer talks, walks and research workshops lead by artists.
We see the possibility in connecting the public to this landscape through art. Return again and again to find new commissions and events unfolding.
