Jane’s Walk (May 5 & 6, 2012) is a hybrid walking tour-urban exploration-neighbourhood festival. It happens in over 35 cities across Canada, and in Toronto, there are over 175 free walking tours on offer - led by passionate and friendly locals who want to share their inside tips on great places to walk, hang out, shop, eat and explore in their neighbourhood.
Jane’s Walk are made possible with the contribution and dedication of hundreds of volunteers - from tour guides and photographers, to sidewalk marshals and office superstars. We are recruiting volunteers actively now, so if you’ve got a bit of time to help make the 6th annual Jane’s Walk as successful as last year, we’d love to hear from you.
If you’re in Toronto, and you want to volunteer for us, send an email to .(JavaScript must be enabled to view this email address).

“...that the sight of people attracts still other people, is something that city planners and city architectural designers seem to find incomprehensible. They operate on the premise that city people seek the sight of emptiness, obvious order and quiet. Nothing could be less true. The presences of great numbers of people gathered together in cities should not only be frankly accepted as a physical fact… they should also be enjoyed as an asset and their presence celebrated…”
