Events | Join us in celebrating the holidays at The 2016 Toronto Art Crawl

Christmas markets are one of those things that help me get into the holiday spirit. Growing up in Ottawa, I used to look forward to the local German Bazaar  with my mom and grandmother.

Now that I have started my own family with my husband here in Toronto, I have created traditions of our own that I look forward to every year. One of those events centered around the holidays is The Toronto Art Crawl – and this year aims to be bigger & better than ever before!
