Grace: One Story of Thousands Back by Popular Demand

Back by popular demand, we are excited to announce that Grace: One Story of Thousands will return for a three-month duration beginning this September!

Grace: One Story of Thousands follows the life and experiences of Grace, one of the 1,511 people buried in the Lakeshore Psychiatric Hospital Cemetery at the corner of Horner and Evans Avenues in South Etobicoke. Through personal letters and surviving hospital records gathered by Grace’s great-niece, you are invited to pause and reflect on a life lived – not defined – by the institutional system in Ontario.

With a shift toward historical accuracy, personhood, and agency, the Interpretive Centre invites you to experience history through a new perspective.

Grace: One Story of Thousands will re-open on Tuesday, September 3, 2024.
