curated and designed by Hibah Mian
As part of ArtworxTO Presented by UrbanArts and the City of Toronto
Weston Road Flows is a multi-media exhibition that explores the transitory nature of the former city of York through the main arterial road, Weston Road. The two-day program explores themes of inclusivity, community, and identity in terms of the historical past of the area and its rapidly changing future through artists that currently call Weston home. Weston Road Flows is multi-sensory in experience that reflects upon its spirit through historical recordings, resident stories, vocal shout-outs, spoken word and on site sounds captured with modern-beats.
The exhibition lives on through the website https://www.urbanarts-publicart.org/weston-road-flows where passers can submit their own stories and be a part of today’s history.
