Jane’s Walk | Water and time

Cooksville Creek, from microseasons to this millennium

Sunday, 4 May 2025 | 2:00 p.m. | John C. Price Playground to oldest(??) black walnut in City Centre

Let’s take a walk along Mississauga’s Cooksville Creek, as an exercise in traveling deep, and not far—across both time and space.

Let’s have conversations about what brings us—people, peoples, and place; humans and nonhumans; ancestors and future kin—together; about portals to an alternate, actually-existing Mississauga; about inhabiting a place; and about water.
