Join the community on Monday, February 2, 2026, at the historic Inglenook School as we unveil three important heritage plaques marking significant moments in Toronto's Black history.
Henry Box Brown Lane, North Star Way, and Cy McLean represent three different aspects of Black history: the Trans-Atlantic Slave Trade, the struggles for emancipation, and the achievements of being Canada's first and only full-scale Black bandleaders during a time of segregation.
We will be joined by Cy McLean's descendants and Heritage Toronto.
