New Online Exhibition: Scene and Unseen: Exploring South Etobicoke through Postcards

In celebration of the Lakeshore Grounds Interpretive Centre’s five-year anniversary, our new online exhibition featuring postcards from our collection launched on January 26, 2022.

Why postcards? This nostalgic method of short-form communication rose in popularity in the early twentieth century due to the increased speed and affordability of the postal service. But for most of their history, postcards have served as more than just a way to share a word with a loved one. Postcards also act as a marker in time, representing a specific location and the memories that a collector may have.

Join us at Scene and Unseen to dive deeper into the stories of South Etobicoke.
