Henry VanderSpek On Notice

Register here for the opening event

If you live in Toronto, you are likely familiar with “Notice of Development” signs. They can be found throughout the downtown core. Henry VanderSpek was inspired to document these signs as a way of marking impending change and the varied responses such change elicits.

On Notice is accompanied by a screening of Excluded by Design, a short documentary (which includes some of VanderSpek’s images) featuring community organizer Dave Meslin, followed by a Q&A. Together, the photo exhibition and film aim to provoke conversations on the use of public notices and the methods cities can use to encourage civic engagement.
