Mississauga’s 17-km stretch of Dundas Street is being profiled in an innovative storytelling project capturing Canada’s main streets.
The Tale of a Town storymobile is at Erindale Park Sunday from 11 a.m. until 3 p.m. and will be set up at several locations along Dundas until July 31.
Residents can share their vision for the future of Dundas and recall memories of its past.
Local artists are gathering stories for the Dundas Connects project, in which the city is developing a long-term master plan focusing on transit, land use and public space.
The Tale of a Town – Canada is created and produced by Toronto-based theatre and media company Fixt Point and the National Arts Centre.
The project will be presented via a multi-platform celebration of main street culture in commemoration of Canada’s 150th anniversary in 2017.
The storymobile’s next stop is downtown Midland.
