Rexdale Community Gateway Mural (2013) and Meeting Place Mural (2014)

Duck under the Kipling and Highway 409 underpass to discover one of Toronto's most ambitious community art installations — a sweeping 370-foot mural that charts the full arc of Rexdale's history, from First Nations settlements to the neighbourhood you see today. Created through VIBE Arts with 18 local youth under the guidance of artist Emilia Jajus, it's the kind of public art that stops you mid-stride. Come at golden hour when the colours truly sing. Perfect for after work — drop in solo or bring a friend. No experience necessary.
