Dance artist Keiko Kitano is one of nine contemporary artists in the latest series of First Impressions.

This latest series, as a TTC poster campaign, was launched March 14th with a total of sixteen posters featuring historic and contemporary artists, and their first impressions of Toronto. First launched in 2009, the inaugural series featured dancer and choreographer Lata Pada. First Impressions highlights how different waves of immigration have built Toronto.
