Event Description
Montreal-based photographer Rita Leistner spent a decade as a tree planter, putting over half a million trees in the ground before going on to a career as a photojournalist, and eventually returning to the forest with her camera. 📷 The result is The Tree Planters: a series of large-scale, painterly portraits that document the people behind one of Canada’s most essential and overlooked forms of environmental labour.
Join us on Friday, August 7 from 5-8pm for a last look at The Tree Planters while it’s still up at the MAG! 🌳
