Watch This Space is a Series of Free, Community-centred Street Events.This August, Watch This Space will transform Dundas Street West into a vibrant site of community connection and creative exploration. Over two days, visitors are invited to experience a series of free curated events, public installations, and participatory workshops that explore place-making, local storytelling, and how we become more resilient — together.Watch This Space brings together artists, neighbours, and visitors in a celebration of creativity, learning, and community well-being. Programming includes hands-on activities like mending and making workshops, children’s activities, a community resource library, and guided walking tours focused on urban accessibility, care, and repair.At the heart of this social project is a street-wide photography exhibition installed in local storefronts, viewable 24/7 through to October 20. The exhibition features the work of community-led organizations and initiatives, creating a visual thread that connects the experience of walking along Dundas to the deeper stories of resilience within it.Visitors are invited to drop in and engage at their own pace. Each day will culminate in a casual Afternoon Tea Social, inviting people to slow down, connect with others, and reflect on the ideas explored throughout the day. Whether you're taking part in a stitching circle, joining a walking tour, or enjoying tea with new neighbours, there are accessible and meaningful entry points for people of all ages and interests.
