People’s Park brings parklife, Chinese style, to the heart of Toronto’s waterfront. Parks play an important role in the life of every Chinese city, town and village, which is why just about every populated area across the country is home to a People’s Park. Every day, all nooks and crannies of these parks are dotted with citizens engaged in a wide range of activities.
Join the Chinese Collective Arts Association for a dance performance/workshop in our very own People’s Park at China Now.
