Our new photography exhibit, The Changing Face of Toronto, opens this Saturday, May 14 in the Toronto Reference Library's TD Gallery. It runs until July 23. As always, admission is free and the gallery is open to all during regular library hours. 

The Changing Face of Toronto offers a glimpse into the daily lives of the people of Toronto through portraits curated from the library’s Toronto Star Photograph Archive and the Canadian Documentary Art Collection.

Check out the video below for a sneak peek.

 

 

Add your photo to the exhibit during TCAF 

This Saturday also happens to be the first day of the bustling Toronto Comic Arts Festival. What more of an excuse do you need to spend the day at the Toronto Reference Library?

If you are visiting TCAF on Saturday, be sure to stop by the TD Gallery photo booth. Strike a pose. Add your portrait to the gallery wall. Help us capture what the faces of Toronto look like in 2016.
