New Models for Better Living? A round table discussion

Sunday, April 27 from 2:30 to 4:30pm at Oakville Town Hall, 1225 Trafalgar Road in the Oakville and Trafalgar Rooms


Oakville Galleries presents New Models for Better Living? and features architects Chris Hardwicke (Sweeny Sterling Finlayson & Co. Architects), Andy Thomson (Altius Architecture Inc. and Sustain Design), along with Oakville Town Planner Kirk Biggar. Their dialogue will be moderated by Lisa Rochon, architecture critic for the Globe and Mail.

Looking at models such as the velo-city project by Chris Hardwicke, Andy Thomson's miniHome, as well as the concepts featured in Oakville Galleries current exhibit, T&T: Onward Future, panellists will bridge utopian architectural models with the reality of suburban planning. Oakville aims to be "the most liveable town in Canada" -- could these models be a solution for the future of the Town of Oakville? Reservations can be made by calling 905.844.4402. Attendance is free of charge.
