Join concept artist Henry Fong for a relaxed outdoor sketching session at the Toronto Music Garden. Guided by Henry, participants will sketch and observe Toronto’s rhythms and architecture in a space where music and design come together.
SKETCH THE CITY: Toronto Edition invites participants to experience Toronto through the eyes of a concept artist – observing how space, light, and movement tell stories without words. Led by Henry Fong (Frankenstein, The Studio, The Boys, It, Star Trek: Strange New Worlds, Pacific Rim, X-Men: Days of Future Past), this informal outdoor sketch session takes place at the Toronto Music Garden – an urban landmark where music, architecture, and landscape design come together in perfect harmony.
Just as the Toronto Music Garden transforms sound into physical form, production design and drawing translate emotion, rhythm, and story into visual space. This relaxed gathering offers a moment to slow down, connect, and rediscover how cities – and design itself, speak in a universal language.
Please note: this event is weather dependent and will be rescheduled in the event of rain.
