While many focus on sight when birdwatching, led by artist and birder Scott Rogers, this walk will encourage you to engage your other senses, prioritizing hearing and bodily awareness to connect with wildlife in local Markham habitats. Binoculars and bird books are welcome but not required.

This program includes a guided tour of the Varley Art Gallery’s current exhibitions Meera Sethi: A Brief History of Wear and Tracing Patterns. The tour will start at 3:40 PM.

Free bus transportation is available (registration required), departing from Spadina and Bloor at 2:15 PM and returning by 7 PM. Participants may also join us directly at the Varley at 3:40 PM, or at the Markham Civic Centre at 4 PM.
