A free outdoor light exhibition in Toronto is illuminating environmental and Indigenous connections [Video]

This month, you can take a serene evening stroll along Toronto’s waterfront along a path of glimmering art installations that rustle in the wind. As you follow winding trails and bridges, you can hear the sound of a crackling bonfire and waves crashing against the shoreline while taking in a picturesque view of the city’s skyline. 

Lumière: The Art of Light is taking place at Trillium Park from March 12 to April 20 with 17 pieces of art, featuring the work of a variety of Toronto artists. This year, the theme of “connections” explores the many ways that light can create connections between people, the environment and aspects of our lives.
