Beaches Toronto Photo Walk and Creative Community Meetup on May 19, 2024 (Postponed to June 2)

Note: this event was scheduled for May 18. It has been rescheduled to June 2.

Join us in the beautiful Beaches neighbourhood in the east Toronto waterfront. This Tdot.cc community meetup is for photographers and city explorers curious about Toronto classics and landmarks. All are welcome.

Our focus is on photography at the wonderful lakeshore beaches and parks found around Queen St. East. The walk takes place before sunset and will last approximately two hours. By mid May vegetation it’s starting to feel like summer is on the horizon – flowers will be blooming and trees are starting to turn green.

This meetup is organized by Mike Simpson, avid photographer and city hike enthusiast. The event is produced by Tdot Shots. Follow our pages on IG: @tdot_shots + @tdot_mike.

This meetup is free. Some versions of this event have a small fee and are conducted as a walking tour focusing on culture, history and architecture. Please register / RSVP. Contact us if you are interested in a private group walking tour and we’ll be happy to customize a tour for you.

Some highlights of the walk (weather permitting and depending on route):

• RC Harris water filtration plant
• Leuty Lifeguard station
• Kew Beach
• Ashbridges Bay

You do not need to have a professional camera. Many participants shoot with smartphones. Many of us are happy to share photography tips! This event will be an opportunity to network and learn more about photography and the Beaches neighbourhood.

Meeting location: The meeting spot is TBA, you will receive a confirmation email the morning of the event. Please add [email protected] to your address book. We usually email you by noon with tips and updates.

After you RSVP an email is sent with a confirmation. If you don’t receive this email contact us.
