  • Enjoy an Artful Experience: For creative connoisseurs, what could be better than a gallery outing? Visit the Art Gallery of Mississauga to see 𝘔𝘺 𝘔𝘰𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘳’𝘴 𝘛𝘰𝘯𝘨𝘶𝘦, a group exhibition of contemporary art that investigates the suppression of language and identity across different cultures and histories.
