Nurture Nature
By Shaun Merritt // No Comments
This is another piece of art located at the University of Toronto that's easy to miss. "Nurture Nature" by Joe Fafard is located on a walkway at the East side of Hart house that sees little foot traffic. It's seclusion and lovely benches makes it a great place for a picnic, or for a bit of reading.
