Through our Eyes: Homeless in Peel 10:00 am - 4:30 pm

Presented by PAMA in partnership with ShareED. For most of us, it is hard to imagine what it is like to be without the stability of a home. Homelessness in Peel is less visible than in downtown Toronto, yet it still exists here and impacts the lives of thousands of people of all ages. This exhibition explores the lived experiences of some of those homeless and at-risk individuals in Peel through art, words, video and photographs.
