IMPORTANT MESSAGE
Harbourfront Centre is disappointed to announce that serious infrastructure issues have forced the closure of its iconic outdoor waterfront rink this winter.
We are also deeply disappointed that we must cancel our 2020–21 skating season, including our Learn to Skate program, as we were all looking forward to getting outside and skating on one of the most beautiful rinks in the city. Learn more here.
Harbourfront Centre continues to monitor the rapidly changing situation regarding the COVID-19 virus. For the health and safety of all our staff and our volunteers, our patrons, supporters and the community, and in line with the advice and guidelines of Toronto Public Health, we will be closed to the public until further notice. Learn more here.

In his exhibition The Field of Emotion, Kader Attia references past trauma and the survivors’ efforts to recover and repair themselves. A popular method to approach this task is meditation and mindfulness so that the survivors can accept and move on after trauma. Cassidy Thedorf is a meditation and mindfulness teacher at Radiate Happy, practicing in the Toronto area. She will take the class through a guided meditation, discuss the benefits of meditation in trauma recovery and take questions about both mindfulness and meditation. Beginners are welcomed.
