Relax, Renew, and Reperspective at the Legacy Center. Create new approaches to learning and living, make valuable connections with leaders and thinkers of all ages, and discover action strategies to change our world for future generations.

Legacy Center

The Legacy Center is a multigenerational education and research center. It focuses on lifelong learning, exploring issues ranging from meaning across the life course to building intergenerational relationships to global challenges like the environment.

The Legacy Center offers inspiring workshops on a 15-acre arboretum that includes a Legacy Labyrinth. The building features trans/multi-generational demonstration spaces. As development of the Legacy Center continues, it is the focal point of the Legacy Project's educational activities reaching across the continent through both onsite and online experiences.

 
Welcome to the Legacy Center

Situated on a 15-acre arboretum, the Legacy Center is located just north of Toronto, Canada. It's designed as a unique educational center for lifelong learning in an inspiring natural setting. The center encourages new perspectives, engages in ongoing research, and embodies the best thinking on environmental and design issues.

Building Design

The new Legacy Center building is being designed by acclaimed architectural team Shim-Sutcliffe. It will be a North American leader, bringing together art and science, beauty and technology. The design will reflect a respect for transgenerational and environmental issues. As we share the design process, we want to encourage you to rethink how and where you live.
