ASTORIA GREEK LUNCH SOCIAL ️ Sunshine on a Plate in the Heart of Greektown Maybe you’re skipping the walk. Maybe you just want the reward. Either way — come meet us for lunch . We’re gathering at **Astoria Shish Kebob House**, a Greektown institution established in 1972 and one of the oldest, most beloved Greek restaurants in Toronto. This isn’t just lunch. This is sizzling souvlaki arriving at the table. This is lemon potatoes that deserve their own fan club. This is grilled calamari, moussaka, warm pita, cool tzatziki, and that unmistakable buzz of a busy Greek dining room. Astoria has been serving authentic Greek cuisine for over 50 years — long before “foodie culture” was a thing. It’s classic. It’s generous. It’s the kind of place where you leave full and a little bit happier than when you arrived. And it’s even better when the table is full of friendly faces. If you’ve been meaning to try one of our events but didn’t want to commit to a full walk — this is your perfect entry point. Just show up hungry and ready to chat.

The Downtown Literary Collective's March book pick is White Teeth. *"White Teeth* is British author Zadie Smith's debut novel, published in 2000. It focuses on the later lives of two wartime friends—the Bangladeshi Samad Iqbal and the Englishman Archie Jones—and their families in London. The novel centres on Britain's relationship with immigrants from the British Commonwealth." Join us at Pauper's Pub (539 Bloor St. West in the Annex) for food and a great book discussion, 2-4pm.

**DANFORTH WALK, BUTTERFLY MURAL & GREEK LUNCH️** Street Culture, Public Art & A Proper Greek Feast There’s something about the Danforth that feels like old-school Toronto in the best possible way — vibrant, layered, proudly local, and full of stories. Join us for a social walk along one of the city’s most iconic stretches: **Danforth Avenue**. As we stroll west toward downtown, we’ll pass lively patios, long-standing family restaurants, cozy cafés, independent shops, and the everyday rhythm of a neighbourhood that has shaped Toronto’s cultural identity for generations. This area is famously home to the annual **Taste of the Danforth**, one of the largest street festivals in the city — and historically, it was once home to the largest Greek community outside of Greece. You feel that history in the bakeries, the signage, the music drifting from open doors. It’s not just a walk. I t’s a little slice of Toronto heritage — experienced together. **Don’t forget to join our WhatsApp group** – [CLICK HERE!](https://chat.whatsapp.com/H59mSCbsAi018gYANrKAnc?mode=ac_t) \*\*\* The Butterfly Mural Stop Along the way, we’ll stop at the Butterfly Mural, sponsored by the **David Suzuki Foundation** as part of The Great Canadian Butterflyway Project. It’s bold, colourful, and rooted in environmental awareness — a reminder that even in the middle of the city, we are connected to something larger. We’ll pause, take photos, chat, and enjoy a little moment of art-meets-nature in urban Toronto. \*\*\* ️ Greek Lunch at a Danforth Institution After our walk, we’ll sit down for lunch at the historic **Astoria Shish Kebob House**, one of the most well-known Greek restaurants in the city. Expect: Classic souvlaki Lemon potatoes Fresh Greek salad Big, generous comfort food energy Menu: Click Here! Nothing bonds people like sharing a table and passing the tzatziki. \*\*\* ‍♂️ What to Expect We’ll walk at a relaxed, social pace — stopping to observe, chat, and enjoy the neighbourhood.

Join us for **Good People**, a gripping and heartfelt drama about survival, second chances, and the divide between the haves and have-nots. ***You can use our promo code to purchase discount tickets for any performance.*** **THE PLAY:** It’s been a rough road for Margie, a single mother living in South Boston. Having just been fired from her job at The Dollar Store, Margie scrambles to find a way for her and her daughter to survive.

The Humanist Monthly Program is our longest running event and still a community favorite. In the old days it used to be called "Going to HCCO" and we still like to think of it as our flagship event. Food and drinks will be provided at the event. Feel free to show up a little bit early to hang out and talk. Our March speakers are Molly Gaines and Zack Parrish, co-organizers of the Secular Education Association: They will share their story of how a small group of Ohio parents grew into a national organization tracking released-time religious instruction and other church–state issues in public schools. The presentation will cover SEA’s early wins and hard lessons, what we’re seeing nationally right now, and how local advocates can play a meaningful role in protecting public education. Attendees will leave with a clearer understanding of the landscape — and practical ways to get involved. Going forward our meetings will be hybrid.
