Oakville Photographer/publisher Mark Zelinski is a multidisciplinary artist whose career spans five decades and over 80 countries.

He is widely recognized for his “Books That Heal” initiative through which he has donated 9,000 photography books to 140 charities worldwide. “Niagara Escarpment: LAND BETWEEN WATERS” is Mark Zelinski’s 10th book, a visually stunning tribute featuring more than 600 landscape, wildlife and cultural photographs of the Niagara Escarpment, one of the world’s unique natural wonders defining an area across Southern Ontario.

Through brilliant images and the personal accounts of multiple guest authors - conservationists, scientists and Indigenous scholars - participants have the opportunity to experience a multi-layered perspective of the living escarpment.
