#PhotoDad milestone achieved! For years I’ve seen excited Photo students roaming #KensingtonMarket, dreaming to bring my own to the market one day. Last week, that dream came true and I brought my Grade 12 Photography students to Kensington Market! @tdsb @TDSB_Arts @donmillsci

Couldn’t sleep last night, so I started to write. In my Photo class we are working on a project about using photography to speak truth to power. With this in mind in the middle of the night, I wrote this poem and shared it with my students.✊🏻✊🏼✊🏽✊🏾✊🏿 @donmillsci @tdsb @TDSB_Arts

Incredibly impressed by the scale of #KeithHaring’s work at @agotoronto! Paintings much bigger I had imagined, covering topics light and heavy, such as AIDS, homophobia, capitalism. @LiveTeachARTS and I loved it! Do yourself a favour and see this wonderful show! @KeithHaringFdn
