❄️🚶‍♂️ **JANUARY WALK: SPADINA ➡️ WATERFRONT + LUNCH & DAY DRINKING** 🍔🍹 **Because winter doesn’t scare us — we scare winter.** “There’s no such thing as bad weather, only unsuitable clothing.” So layer up, grab your cutest toque, and let’s make January our personality 😏 Join us for a **city walk through some of Toronto’s most iconic neighbourhoods**, ending with lunch, drinks, and that smug feeling you get when you actually *leave the house in winter*. Miss this and your January will officially be beige. FOMO will be real. *** ### THE WALK 🗺️✨ We’ll start at **Spadina Station** and head south, soaking up the city one fabulous step at a time. • **Kensington Market** 🛍️ – over 100 years of history, culture, and vibes. From its roots as a Jewish market to the many immigrant communities that shaped it, this place is Toronto’s heartbeat. • **Chinatown** 🏮 – now home to many Asian communities, buzzing with markets, food, and energy. • **Graffiti Alley** 🎨 – yes, *world-famous*. Iconic murals, photoshoot moments, and peak Toronto cool. • **Mueseum of Toronto** 🖼️ **-** This is free a mueseum - Mr. Dressup to Degrassi: 42 Years of Legendary Toronto Kids TV • **The Well** 🏗️ – shiny, new, and very “Toronto glow-up.” • **Crumbl Cookies** 🍪 – because walking burns calories and we deserve happiness. • **Waterfront** 🌊 – fresh air, winter drama, and main-character energy. After the walk, we’ll head for **lunch and drinks at a local spot**. Did someone say **day drinking???** 👀🍹 *** ⚠️ **IMPORTANT NOTES** • This is **NOT a historic walking tour** — it’s an introduction to neighbourhoods and communities (with commentary when the mood strikes). • This walk happens **rain, snow, cold, drama, or vibes** ❄️ • **Do not sign up** if you’re not prepared to walk in winter. • Event will only be cancelled if it hits **-20°C** (because we are brave, not reckless). *** ### MEETUP DETAILS 🧤🧣 📍 **Meetup Location:** Outside the **main exit of Spadina Station** 👀 **How you’ll spot me:** I’ll be wearing my **MOOSE HAT**. You can’t miss it. ⏰ **Meetup Time:** 11:00 AM (I wait **5 minutes**, because winter waits for no one) 🏁 **End Point:** **Shoeless Joe’s** for lunch! 💰 $5 (cash 💵 or e-transfer 📲 to \*\*[mathewmaclean@hotmail.com**](http://mathewmaclean@hotmail.com%2A%2A/)) You can send it before or on the day of the walk. 👟 **PLEASE WEAR GOOD SHOES OR BOOTS** — this is a long walk and icy sidewalks are sneaky. *** ### WHAT TO BRING 🎒 • Water • Good walking shoes or boots • A snack • A sense of humour about the cold *** ⏳ **HOW LONG?** About **3 hours**, including a small break. 🚪 **Can you leave early?** Absolutely — Irish goodbye anytime. 👀 **NOT SURE YOU CAN MAKE IT?** Just show up. Literally. January is hard enough. 📱 **Don’t forget to join our WhatsApp group** – [CLICK HERE!](https://chat.whatsapp.com/H59mSCbsAi018gYANrKAnc?mode=ac_t) Get updates, chat with other walkers, and stay in the loop for future events! *** Mathew is the organizer for this meetup. If you need to contact him, please post on the wall or email: 📧 **torontomoviesandoutings@hotmail.com** ✨ Bundle up. Come walk. Eat cookies. Drink in daylight. If you miss this… yeah. You’ll hear about it. ❄️🔥

**NO MUSICAL EXPERIENCE REQUIRED** **About Drum & Soul** The only intention behind Drum & Soul is to help create vibrant, healthier, and more united communities – together. We believe art is the best channel for that purpose. This is more than a drumming circle. It is a practical space where we do two things at once: we develop useful skills and cultivate inner qualities, and we help others grow those same qualities. Through rhythms from many cultures, collective singing and meaningful conversation around a focused theme, we practise skills that strengthen both the individual and the community. **Why come** If you want to expand your expressive capacity, practise listening with depth, learning to lead or join others who take community wellbeing to heart, Drum & Soul is for you. This is a place to try courageously, to learn deeply, and to contribute authentically. Everyone is welcome regardless of background or musical experience. If you feel shy in groups, that is completely natural and we got you. A few of us will gently hover around newcomers like butterflies, offering a warm welcome and quiet space so nobody feels out of place. Many people tell us they arrived nervous but soon felt as if they had stepped into a family home. **How it works** At the start of each session we centre with a short breathing exercise, followed by a demonstration of simple rhythms, then break into small groups for guided conversation. Finally we move into collective jamming and improvisation. We finish by socializing and sharing a potluck meal and continuing our conversation and connection as a human family. **Typical meeting flow** 1. 🫱🏽‍🫲🏻 Arrival & social time – 20 min 2. 🙋🏻‍♀️ Welcome, check in and centring – 10 min 3. 🪘 Call & Respond **Drumming & demo** – 10 min 4. 💬 Facilitated **Discussion** on the Theme (groups of three) – 20 min 5. ☕ Potluck **dinner** – 40 min 6. 🕺🏽 Open **Jamming** with multiple instruments – 20 min 7. 🦋 **Tear down** and social time afterwards ... *This outline is flexible and may shift to suit the group and the space.* **Logistics and what to bring** We meet in a large beautiful space. Drums are available on a first come first served basis. We also provide plenty of small percussion instruments so every hand can play. You are welcome to bring your own drum or instrument. After our time of drumming and dialogue, we share a simple potluck dinner, an extension of our circle where conversation continue to flourish over nourishing food. Feel free to bring whatever you love to share. **Cost and contributions** This is a free event. As a community we are encouraged to contribute even a small snack to share with everyone, or pay what or if you can, to cover the costs of refreshments and material, by E-transfer to: **hooshmandnyc@gmail.com** – Contributions are optional. **Helpful notes** No prep needed. Doors open at 3:30 p.m. Please arrive by then so we can start at 4:00 p.m. sharp and keep the flow. Location and any last minute updates are posted on Meetup and in our WhatsApp group. We recommend joining the WhatsApp group (ask us for the link) for quick notices. **Why this matters** In a world aching for healing, we believe our sacred mission is to nurture one another, define our roles in service to our fellow humans, and become living temples of unity. Growth unfolds through both self‑discovery and collective effort, and one cannot truly flourish without the other. Come open and prepared to learn, to offer your gifts, and to be strengthened by the power of community. *This ad is also posted in other groups* 📷 Follow us on [Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/artsoultoronto/) 🎥 [A glimpse from one of our sessions](https://youtu.be/ejfeV1PF-0k)
