REGISTRATION IS NOW OPEN! THE COURSE BEGINS SEPTEMBER 16!
Toronto has a lot of skeletons in its closet. The city's history is filled with stories of infamous love affairs, disgraced politicians and outrageous movie stars. Tales of vice, sin and impropriety have made headlines, shocked the public, and deeply shaped the place we call home. In this online course, we'll explore what those spicy stories can teach us about our city and its past by illuminating the boundaries of Torontonian morality — and we'll meet those who have challenged its limits, for better and for worse.
Explore the history of the city with the author of The Toronto Book of the Dead and The Toronto Book of Love, host of the Canadiana documentary series, and recipient of the Governor General's History Award for Popular Media — the Pierre Berton Award.
Format: This course will include four weekly lectures on Zoom with a chance to interact and ask questions, as well as a list of recommended readings.
Dates: September 16 to October 7, 2024.
Time: 8pm every Monday night. Each week's lecture will last approximately 1 to 1.5 hours.
Recordings: Every lecture will be available to stream online later for anyone who can't make that week's class. All the recordings will remain available for the foreseeable future.
Cost: $75 + tax.
Registration: To register, simply fill out the form below and I'll follow up to arrange payment by e-transfer or cheque, whichever you prefer.
If more than one person in your household would like to take the course, feel free to sit in on the lectures together — you only need to pay one fee per screen.
I'm also offering 10% off for paid subscribers of my Toronto History Weekly newsletter! (You can subscribe here.)
If you have any other questions, email me at adam@torontodreamsproject.com and I'll be very happy to answer them.
(If you're filling the form out on mobile, you might want to turn your screen sideways — sorry, the font is as big as they'll let me make it!)
