Join elders Sabrina Simmons and Jim Williams as they lead this walking tour of the Knox neighbourhood. In a leisurely 2 hour walk they’ll help you get to know how Knox Church has influenced the area over the last 200 years, plus lots of fascinating facts and trivia.
We’ll meet at 1:00pm, directly across from the church on the east side of Spadina (look for the blue umbrella).
The walk takes approximately 2 hours, and there are no washrooms or food on either route.
