Canada Day

Celebrate the cultural diversity and natural beauty of Canada through creativity. In this hands-on workshop, guests of all ages are invited to design a personalized “Message from Canada” card. Inspired by your favourite landscape or a meaningful memory, your card can express what Canada means to you—and what you’d like others to discover about this remarkable country.

Join a guided tour of the McMichael’s stunning grounds and discover the rich biodiversity of the Humber River Valley. Highlights include the Sculpture Garden, Minokamik Garden, and Artists’ Cemetery. The tour ends inside the historic Tom Thomson Shack, where you’ll explore a new installation by artist-in-residence Iris Häussler.

Get ready for toe-tapping fun with The Two City Pickers—a Canada Day exclusive! This powerhouse bluegrass ensemble brings together acclaimed musicians from The Slocan Ramblers, The Fretless, and The Unseen Strangers. With roots in both Toronto and Nashville, their sound blends Bluegrass and Appalachian Old-Time traditions into a high-energy, unforgettable musical experience. With accolades ranging from Juno Awards to Grand Ole Opry appearances, this is a performance you won’t want to miss!

Featuring: Frank Evans (Banjo, Vocals), Adam Shier (Guitar, Vocals), Ben Plotnick (Fiddle), and Charles James (Bass).
