“YIMBY”, YES IN MY BACKYARD Festival is a celebration of grassroots, community-driven initiatives that have improved neighbourhoods and the city overall.
This year, the festival will be held in the Bram & Bruma Appel Salon at the Toronto Reference Library. At YIMBY, community groups from across Toronto turn the table on politicians and policy makers, to educate them and each other about the unique issues that face Toronto communities. YIMBY provides an opportunity for neighbours to meet neighbours, residents to meet politicians and politicians to meet community groups in the spirit of people coming together for positive change. It is a celebration of grassroots, community-driven initiatives that have improved neighbourhoods and the city overall. There is no cost for entrance, but if community groups would like to host a table, they can contact us for more details.
