La Salle Pavilion, Main Ball Room, 2nd Level
The City of Burlington is developing an Urban Park Strategy to guide the development of parks to align with the city’s Mobility Hubs and a focus on urban growth areas.
Join the City of Burlington and 8 80 cities' founder Gil Penalosa for an evening of education and engagement.
Doors open at 6:30 p.m.
The evening will start at 7 p.m. with a key note from Gil (Guillermo) Penalosa: Founder and Chair of 8 80 Cities, a Canadian based international non-profit organization, grounded on the concept of 8 80. What if everything we did in our cities had to be great for an 8-year-old and an 80-year-old?
His talk will focus on the features of great urban parks and public spaces that create a sense of community.
After the talk, residents will learn about the City’s work toward an Urban Park Strategy for Burlington and be given the chance to share their ideas on what these parks could look like.
The event is free but seating is limited. Residents are encouraged to register for the event at https://www.eventbrite.ca/e/urban-park-strategies-with-gil-penalosa-tickets-54614692014

Spiders Alive!
Jan 19, 2019 10:00 AM - Apr 14, 2019 05:00 PM
Royal Botanical Gardens
We've invited spiders and their arthropod friends to crawl on over for a visit this winter.Explore amazing adaptations and behaviours of spiders and other many-legged creatures in two interactive exhibits and daily programs for all ages.
In Spiders Alive!, visitors can explore spider anatomy and evolutionary history, learn about their signature traits — venom and silk-making — and be surprised by little-known defense mechanisms such as mimicry and noise-making. In addition to live arachnids representing approximately 17 species, the exhibition includes larger-than-life models of spiders, a climbable spider model 50 times life size, and a rare 100-million-year-old fossil of a spider in limestone.
