Upcoming Exhibits
We're already working on our next exhibitions, below find information about upcoming shows!
Interpretive Centre & Third Floor Gallery
Lakeshore Psychiatric Hospital Cemetery
Coming September 2023.
There are 1,511 individuals buried in the Lakeshore Psychiatric Hospital Cemetery at the corner of Horner and Evans Avenues - a cemetery that was almost lost due to industrial development in the area. Thanks to the efforts of community mental health advocates, the Cemetery is today a protected and peaceful resting space with a gated entrance and historic signage.
This exhibit will highlight the story of the Lakeshore Psychiatric Hospital cemetery and the people who fought to save it.
Second Floor Gallery
Queer Joy
Celebrating the Artwork of Queer & Trans folks
June 1 - August 4, 2023
