What Holds Us Together is a collection of spoken word poetry by writer and performer, Faduma Mohamed. The thirty minute listening experience takes place in Moccasin Trail Park, in the Don Valley Parkway area. "Being still with nature is important to me. Every time I need to ground myself I run to nature. From time to time, I would escape to the East Don River Trail for the walk over bridges, the gentle sound of the river and the essence of the valley"
