We are very excited to welcome our local community back to outdoor events this season. Our vision is to foster an inclusive and welcoming campus for patients, family, staff and the community. Hosting events that welcome everyone on campus is one of the ways we do that. Our 2022 events hosted over 4,000 people to our site for a range of fun activities and events. Below, you’ll find a list of our planned events launching this Spring 2023. Please drop by the CAMH information table if you have any questions.
