Students, staff, and the community are invited to join us for an artist walk through the Humber Arboretum, led by artist, educator, and Arboretum staff member Benjamin Verdicchio. Starting at the North Space gallery this is an informal walk meant to look at the Humber Arboretum with an expanded and critical lens. Topics of art, architecture, landscaping, design, politics, social sciences, philosophy, and many more will be casually discussed in and amongst the Arboretum's vast and varying landscape.
Please be advised that portions of this walk will involve natural terrain and some moderate hills.This event is hosted in partnership with the Humber Arboertum.
