01.09.23 - The Daniels Faculty’s Fall 2023 Public Program

The John H. Daniels Faculty of Architecture, Landscape, and Design at the University of Toronto is pleased to present its Fall 2023 Public Program.

Our Program this semester addresses a range of pertinent issues concerning the natural and built environments, continuing the Faculty’s tradition of fostering dialogue and exchanging knowledge through a curated series of exhibitions, lectures, book talks, panel discussions and symposia. 

Through these events, we aim to engage our local and international communities on the important social, political and environmental challenges confronting our disciplines and the world today.  Topics addressed include design and social justice, urbanization and housing, art and media, and ecology and landscape resilience.  

All of the events in our Program are free and open to the public. Register in advance and consult the calendar for up-to-date details at daniels.utoronto.ca/events.  All events will be livestreamed and available to view on the Daniels Faculty's YouTube channel
