Join Lawrence, your top hatted host, for an afternoon of craft beer and local food at Harbord House, followed by a visit to my favourite fiction book store, Bakka, then the Ukrainian Museum, and then Lillian H. Smith library to see their exhibit on Winnie the Pooh. We will meet-up at the Harbord House for some lunch and craft beer. I like this airy restaurant, with its big windows while I dine on their delicious fig, pear and goat cheese salad. https://harbordhouse.ca/ 124 Harbord St, Toronto, ON M5S 1G8 At 1 pmish, we will walk to Bakka Books, my favourite Sci-fi and Fantasy book store, where those who work there offer reviews of some of the works presented. This is how I found such cherished Canadian authors, such as Charles de Lint and Robert J. Sawyer. Perhaps, you too, will discover something here. https://www.bakkaphoenixbooks.com/ 84 Harbord St, Toronto, ON M5S 1G5 At 1:30 pmish, we will head south on Spadina to the Ukrainian Museum to see two exhibits, the Kosiv Bazaar and a display of traditional textiles. https://www.umcontario.com/ 620 Spadina Ave., Toronto, ON M5S 2H4 After visiting here, we will take a selfie with the prominent statue of Volodymyr the Great Monument. Our last stop will take us past the impressive Daniels Building, a significant neo-Gothic landmark beautifully integrated with modern sustainable architecture. As we approach the Lilian H. Smith library, we will be greeted by two guardians. Then we will take the lift upstairs to Osborne Collection of Early Children's Books to see Winnie the Pooh at 100. You can take photos, though no flash. https://tpl.bibliocommons.com/v2/events/6928c74394cbff62002873a4 239 College St 4th floor, Toronto, ON M5T 1R5 Afterwards, we can see the Merril Collection of Science Fiction, Speculation & Fantasy which is showcasing early pulp magazines.

**Toronto, It’s Happening! Saturday, February 28th from 3pm to 5pm EST (or longer, if you’re having fun)!** The **Unapologetically Childfree™️ Community** is growing fast in **London and Lisbon**, slowly but surely across the U.S.—and now… **Canada is officially joining the party** thanks to a lovely community member in Toronto who’s ready to host. ✨ This will be the **first Unapologetically Childfree™️ meetup in Toronto** (and hopefully the first of many across Canada ), created for childfree folks who are ready to find real community and lasting friendships. While I won’t be there in person, this meetup will be hosted by **Alison**, a Toronto local and UCC member who’s excited to welcome you all and help get this community started IRL. ‍♀️ *** **Event Details:** * **Who:** Childfree people—meaning anyone who doesn’t have or want kids. Locals and visitors welcome. If you’re ready to meet people who *get it*, you’re in the right place. * ️ **What:** A relaxed, come-as-you-are hangout with food, drinks, and easy conversation. No agenda. No pressure. Just connection. * **Where:** **Waterworks Food Hall** Located inside **Waterworks Condos & Residences**, this modern food hall has lots of options (including vegetarian-friendly bites), plenty of seating, and a great social vibe. [https://www.waterworksfoodhall.com/](https://www.waterworksfoodhall.com/) * **When:** **February 28th** ⏰ **Date & Time:** **3:00 PM – 5:00+ PM Toronto Time** (The end time is a placeholder—if Toronto is anything like the rest of the UCC, this will likely go longer ) * **Cost:** The meetup itself is free. Average spend at the venue is estimated at **$20–30 CAD per person**, depending on what you order. * **Parking:** Underground parking is available at the building. Details on cost/availability are not confirmed, so plan accordingly. * **Why You Should Join:** This is a low-key way to meet other childfree adults in Toronto who are also looking for community—not networking, not dating pressure, just real humans connecting. * ⏰ **Arrive & Leave:** Totally flexible. Come early, show up late, stay a bit, stay awhile—it’s all welcome. * **Stay Connected:** Want updates, day-of coordination, and first dibs on future Toronto (and Canada-wide ) events? Join the WhatsApp groups by signing up here: **[https://maggiedickens.com/childfree-group-chat](https://maggiedickens.com/childfree-group-chat)** Huge gratitude to Alison for helping bring Unapologetically Childfree™️ to Toronto.

Hogtown Hash House Harriers (HH3) is a Toronto social running and beer drinking group, with runs happening every other Saturday, plus one Thursday and one Friday per month. We start at different locations across the city, run as a group, and typically end at a local pub where we continue to socialize. Expect plenty of laughs, songs, quirky traditions, and a beer stop or two along the way. Walkers and non-beer drinkers are also welcome! HH3’s Saturday run is typically 5-8 km, with a shorter trail for walkers. Meet and greet today is at 5pm to start run around 5:30pm. Note: Today is a special event - "Half Wit's Hot Ones, Winter Edition." After the trail we will gather at the hare's place for a wings and hot sauce tasting - how hot can you go?? Date / Time: Saturday February 28 @ 5pm Start location: Rainhard Brewery, [100 Symes Road](https://maps.app.goo.gl/BcsMDTuMJH5WTA1t7) Cost: $10 for drinkers, $2 for non-drinkers, paid at start of trail; optional additional cost for food / extra drinks after trail (TBD) Most of our regular members do not use Meetup, so you can expect to meet more people than those who RSVPd here.

\*\*NOTE: This meetup currently lacks a regular host. (The current hosts are volunteers for online organizational purposes; they show up in person occasionally.) If you arrive and there is no host, don’t worry. Whoever is the longest-running member (or whoever wants to) can set the timer for the writing session. In this way, the meetup is self-sustaining, and not dependent on any one person. Thanks for your understanding.\*\* Join us for an hour of quiet writing, followed by an hour of (optional) socializing. \*\*SILENT WRITING BEGINS AT 1:15 PM. IF YOU'RE LATE, WELCOME! WE WILL IGNORE YOU (BECAUSE WE'RE BUSY WRITING) UNTIL 2:15 PM.\*\* This meetup is open to everyone, whether you’re writing a novel, blog, class paper, or journal entry—or something completely different. Anyone interested is welcome to attend :) LOCATION: 5 Elements Cafe, basement level RSVP: Please be advised that seating is first-come, first-served, even if you have RSVP'd. Seats are not reserved and we can't control how many other people are in the cafe. We recommend coming down to the basement to grab a spot before you buy anything, just in case. SCHEDULE: 1:00 to 1:15 PM: Arrive and get settled in. 1:15 to 2:15 PM: Write in silence for an hour. \*\*If you arrive after 1:15, please silently find your own place to sit. We'll welcome you to join the group at 2:15.\*\* 2:15 PM: Introduce yourself. We'll go in a circle; just say your name and 1–2 sentences about what you're writing. (E.g., "I'm Rudolph and I'm writing a non-fiction book about reindeer.") 2:20 PM onwards: Chill/leave. Chat, hang out, keep writing if you want, leave whenever.
