Ordinary Folk/Extraordinary Lives (2016)

Pause in front of this moving six-panel mural and take a quiet moment to honour the families who built the Islington neighbourhood from its earliest days. Commemorating the residents now resting in the historic Islington Burying Ground — some plots dating back to the 1840s — it transforms an ordinary stretch of Dundas into something genuinely affecting. A reflective, unhurried stop that puts the everyday pace of after-work Toronto in meaningful perspective. Perfect for after work — drop in solo or bring a friend. No experience necessary.
