This fall, I participated in my first-ever outdoor art festival: the Queen West Art Crawl! I applied with two objectives: to have my work seen in the heart of Toronto’s principle art neighbourhood, and to use the deadline as incentive for making a new body of work.
Despite cold and rainy weather putting a damper on Saturday, the Sunday was very well-attended. I met and talked with a lot of lovely, interested show-goers and received a lot of positive feedback — and even a few sales! Thanks to everyone who came out — especially friends and family — it meant a lot to me to feel your support.
It’s a great event, so I intend to return in 2017 — hope to see you there!
Extra special thanks to Kim Lee Kho who helped with so many things: social media, prep and shlep, set up and take down BOTH days — I couldn’t have done it without you!
I would also like to acknowledge funding support from the Ontario Arts Council, an agency of the Government of Ontario.
