The Lakeshore Grounds Interpretive Centre welcomes you to our new Third Floor Gallery exhibition Wild About the City featuring local artist Lisa Compton! Explore a mix of scratchboard, oils, pastels, and acrylics representing the diverse flora and fauna of the Toronto area. The exhibition highlights the relationship between wildlife and urban spaces, presenting unique voices of subjects speaking from their urbanized landscapes.

Experience another perspective on animals commonly thought to be dangerous or pestilential and develop a new understanding of the influence of urban expansion on local wildlife. Reflect on past assumptions, develop an appreciation for our natural neighbours, and learn how to safely cohabitate in our shared spaces.

The exhibition will run October 11, 2022 to January 20, 2023. Third floor gallery is open Monday to Friday from 7 a.m. to 6 p.m. and Wednesdays from 7 a.m. to 6:30 p.m.
