Let’s pull back Spadina’s rich tapestry, revealing a world of seamstresses and sweatshops, tinkers and tailors, pushcarts and pamphlets, bagels and bushel baskets. Step back in time to when this neighborhood was the vibrant heart of a bustling Jewish community, with Spadina Avenue serving as its “cosmic spine.” As we walk through history, we’ll recapture the essence of what novelist Matt Cohen described as “an infinity of delectable possibilities, an adolescent theme park throbbing with folk music… protest marches, idealists of all ages.” Discover how Spadina's Jewish community wove itself into the broader fabric of the city, paving the way for new waves of immigrants and emerging countercultures.We are committed to ensuring our programming is accessible to anybody who wishes to attend. Please email [email protected] with any accessibility questions or requests and we will work together to find ways for you to join us. This program is ideal for those 9 years and older.
