Title: Opening Reception: Urban Design or Civic Design?
1 plus 1 equals 3 – at least presents
“Urban Design or Civic Design?”
”Imagine small gardens on sidewalks. Imagine buying your fruits and vegetables from inner city farms. Imagine parking lots with trees, where people can gather.”
Toronto Free Gallery and "1 plus 1 equals 3 at least" invite you to join activist groups, artists, designers, architects and urban planners as they re-imagine how design in our city can change in order to foster a greener Toronto.
