It's winter, cold and dark and Thursday night...what do you do? Well, head to the Art Gallery of Ontario's 1st Thursdays event of course!
This is what I did this past Thursday, January 3rd, braving the wind and lingering NYE hang-over/tiredness. At only $10 ($8 for members), this is a great new option for doing something different in Toronto. With art, talks, music, djs, food, drinks and a great mix of people, the sold out event brought a new buzz to the AGO! This past event had music from the amazing Basia Bulat with visual artist Stephanie Comilang, Toronto street artist Dan Bergeron, DJ Jay Ferguson from Sloan amongst many others.
We drank margaritas, ate black market churros, painted by numbers and drew landscape still lifes...couldn't really ask for a better art filled night!
The next 1st Thursday is set for February 7th, 2013 with the theme of City Scrawl: Urban Intersections. Sure to be another great event.
