Taking place at City Hall's Nathan Phillips Square
The Toronto Outdoor Art Exhibition is open to the public and free of charge. Experience and purchase original artworks from some 320 artists!
I am a FAN & here is my brief Friday July 14 Bastille Day UPDATE:
Sadly this year's turnout is perhaps the lightest in memory but it's still worth a detour. Parked a P lot under City Hall ($3 per half hour)
Here is one of my favouriteToronto-based artists - Peter Barelkowski

For a bite - actually a few bites, I had a Lobster Roll for $15+ with taxes
It had a small Miss Vickies, 2 slices of dill pickle and a wedge of lemon.
When I asked for a tad more mayo none was available as the fiiling was pre-mixed.
I pointed out that even the $3 hot dog stand has mayo.

Adjacent to the Reif Winery
We actually slept in the same bed that was occupied by Peter O'Toole and there wasn't a grain of sand. Quiet with a great breakfast.
