The Word On The Street Toronto (Panel)

THE ART OF MANLINESS: EXPLORING MASCULINITY
ADNAN KHAN, A. GREGORY FRANKSON, MATTEO L. CERILLI, KATIE UNDERWOOD (MODERATOR)

A thoughtful, inspiring conversation exploring masculinity in all its forms. What does manhood look like culture to culture, era to era – and what could it look like? How do men aspire to greatness in their families, workplaces, and wider societies? Where does art and literature come into all of this? Join Adnan Khan, A. Gregory Frankson, and Matteo L. Cerilli as they mull over the art of manliness together.
