The John H. Daniels Faculty of Architecture, Landscape, and Design at the University of Toronto is excited to present its fall 2024 public program.
Through a curated series of lectures, exhibitions, book talks, discussions, and symposia, this semester’s program raises questions and delves into contemporary issues facing the built and natural environment. From housing typologies and modern legacies to Indigenous storytelling and the intersection of climate science, geopolitics, and artistic perspectives, we explore a diverse range of topics aimed at fostering dialogue and exchange across our disciplines.
All events are free and open to the public. Register in advance and consult the events calendar for up-to-date details here. Many events will be live-streamed and available on the Daniels Faculty’s YouTube channel.
