Take yourself on a Storywalk in the Arboretum

You are invited to a self-guided journey through a special outdoor StoryWalk® featuring Walking Together (Annick Press, 2023), a story by Elder Albert D. Marshall (Mi’kma’ki) and Louise Zimanyi (Tkaronto), and illustrated by Emily Kewageshig (Saugeen First Nation). This StoryWalk® celebrates Indigenous ways of knowing and being, and reminds us of the deep connections between children, land, and community. 

What is a StoryWalk®?: An immersive reading experience where the community can read a story one page at a time while walking through an outdoor trail. 

Date: Available from September 19 to November 28, 2025 

Location: Humber Arboretum, close to the Centre for Urban Ecology, North Campus. 

Created in partnership with Humber & University of Guelph Humber Library, Humber Early Childhood Education, Humber’s Indigenous Education & Engagement, Humber Arboretum, and the City of Toronto, this walk supports Early Childhood Education students, the Humber and University of Guelph-Humber community, and especially young children and families.
