Toronto is recognized as one of the most diverse cities in the world. Over 250 ethnicities and 180 languages are represented here. We celebrate our multiculturalism in many ways; by visiting cultural neighbourhoods, enjoying social celebrations, and visiting restaurants with foods from around the world. Together, we create a beautiful and exciting place to be, filled with heritage and tradition, creating a culture within our city that is unlike any other.

For the past 8 years, Cover Me Urban has been a celebration of our diverse city. We come together for a special night to celebrate the culture-rich neighbourhoods of Toronto for an electric evening of urban sights and sounds. We sample street foods prepared by local Toronto Chefs, enjoy visual arts, music and entertainment, all while supporting and bringing awareness to youth within our city who struggle with the realities of homelessness.

For 2023, we are revamping the CMU experience, diving deeper into the spirit of our city, and communities, to explore the magic Toronto has to offer with our “Neighbourhood Series”. Moving forward, we’d like to dedicate each year to a cultural neighbourhood of Toronto. We hope that together we will be able to explore and learn about our communities while raising awareness to the thousands of youth within them who struggle to find a safe place to call home.

With our new CMU model, deciding on our first neighbourhood to celebrate in 2023 was very important. This year, we will look back to our roots, exploring the original neighbourhood and meeting place on this land – Tkaronto.

Working alongside First Nations, knowledge holders, artists, and organizations within our community, “CMU – Tkaronto, The Original Meeting Place” will be a collaborative celebration of the origins of our city – the original meeting place.

We invite you to join us in the celebration of our past, to learn, and to grow with us, as we explore our city while raising awareness and funds to support our youth – the future of tomorrow.
