From July 6th until the 8th, Nathan Phillips Square will feature the 2018 Toronto Outdoor Art Fair, marking the event's 57th year in the city.
Located in the heart of Toronto's downtown core, the fair is a great place for locals and visitors alike of all ages to stop by, with over 360 renowned artists there to feature their work and take part in informative discussions. The fair will offer a range of panels and workshops, such as the Slow Foto Box, an onsite darkroom where visitors can learn to develop their own photo booths and The Collector's Panel, where visitors can learn to properly buy and curate art. Attendees will have the chance to see a live performance by 'Calibrate' during the event as well, with the choreographed performance exploring the concept of human connection and tension. To keep visitor's refreshed, Henderson Brewing Co. will be running the beer garden daily, where food, beer and non-alcoholic beverages can be purchased.
Those interested in attending the 2018 Toronto Outdoor Art Fair can find the full schedule on the event's website.
