College of Arts studio art professor Diane Borsato’s newest book, Mushrooming: The Joy of the Quiet Hunt, was highlighted in The Globe and Mail

“I was interested in the aesthetics and culture around mushrooms, and making a guide that was contemporary and feminist,” Borsato said of her book and its success.
