What are the limits of your personal space? Through to September, Harbourfront Centre wants you to read between the lines and consider borders through all of our programming’Äîborders within countries, borders within relationships, open borders, psychological borders, shifting borders and more. Harbourfront Centre’Äîculture without borders.
