Hello friends at TNG, St. Stephen’s, and Central Neighbourhood House,

Prepared by Mike Simpson

Good to see you here. I am grateful you took the time to visit this landing page. Explore some of the blog and events pages to get an example of the types of things I work on with the creative community in the GTA. 🙂

My Pitch

I would love to collaborate with you on some community building projects in 2025. It’s a time to network, create enduring relationships and build skills.

CREATE COMMUNITY

We make great things together: events, experiences and community.

Tdot Shots has worked with some great partners on events in recent years. Thank you to our collaborators.

My Background

I am Mike Simpson. I have worked in design and media for twenty years as the owner of an agency called Tdot.com. Primarily I’ve worked with artists, educators and retailers helping them create websites, video and content for social media

My past experience is in teaching and training. In fact I worked for St. Stephen’s in the past and led two sessions of training for the Toronto LIP back in 2011-2012. In that context I was working via my contacts with CCLCS where I have also taught LINC and managed their website.

As a creative I’ve been building the hubs Tdot Shots and Tdot.cc since 2018. Approximately 30, 000 people follow our various social accounts. Hundreds participate every year joining our in-person events. We have started developing an online community and featuring local talent on our sites. We treasure our blog contributors. We are proud of our online courses and site network at Tdot.co.

Tdot.cc supports creators and community in Toronto

Since 1998 via Tdot Shots and our events site Tdot.cc, we have supported artists, photographers and creative minds in Toronto. On social, we have tens of thousands of followers – one thousand have become participants at events like photo walks and workshops.

Services I offer:

Event creation and facilitation (photo walks, tours, workshops)
Online courses and e-learning development (Moodle, WordPress)
Design and media production (web, social, video)

Let’s collaborate in 2025!

Looking forward to chatting with you about your projects and how working with Tdot.cc can benefit you, your staff and your community.
