Ryerson’s Department of Architectural Science has a number of upcoming events for architecture enthusiasts in Toronto. Two lectures by international architects, and a local exhibition, will offer a variety of informative content to fill the Fall months.

Opening just a few days ago, the Trans+Formation exhibit sees masters students' work created with emerging technologies. The themed gallery addresses architectural adaptability and responsiveness through the transformation and movement of the building components. Structures involving moving parts in the development of more sustainable building envelopes will also be presented. Running at the Paul H. Cocker Gallery at 325 Church Street, the exhibition will run until October 18th, 2019.
