Cooksville Creek, from microseasons to this millennium
Sunday, 3 May 2026 | 2:00 p.m. | John C. Price Playground to oldest(??) tree in Mississauga 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.
