As part of Culture Days, 13 museums and cultural organizations along the Bloor Street Cultural Corridor will offer FREE programming this weekend. (Sept 26-28) Feel like a hard-hitting documentary? Or would you prefer to just chill and paint clay? DO BOTH!
Grab your culture-vulture buddy, meet for brunch, download the new Bloor Street Cultural Corridor app and explore the diverse array of exhibits, performances and experiential offerings (FOR FREE!) along Bloor Street, between The Annex and Yorkville.
Along your journey, break for a pumpkin latte on a park bench in Philosopher’s Walk. We honestly can’t think of a better way to spend an autumn afternoon.
Here are some of the things you could do/try:
- enjoy a screening at the Bloor Hot Docs Cinema of I AM: SMTOWN LIVE WORLD TOUR or The Green Chain
- visit the gallery for an exhibit of paintings by Marie Rioux or view some beautifully animated French cartoon films for kids in the new theatre at theAlliance Française de Toronto
- get up close and personal with the Bata Shoe Museum’s exciting hands-on collection
- experience The Royal Conservatory’s Koerner Hall, one of the world’s greatest concert halls, and see performers of all ages and genres in fast-paced 5-minute sets during the Koerner Hall Free for All! or hear the ARC Ensemble perform a powerful concert that commemorates the start of WW1
- enjoy the Caroline Cole Harp Recital at the University of Toronto Faculty of Music
- meet a ROM expert and learn about daily life in medieval Cairo
