Hello Cabbagetown! Welcome to the Long Weekend Edition of Cabbagetown News.
This week we bring you a fabulous restoration, a dancer's dream, and announce two projects we need your help with.
First, some important information from the Cabbagetown BIA:
If you are an artist who lives or works in St James Town or Cabbagetown, you are invited to join us for a free workshop on how to prepare and submit an application to paint a mural on an outdoor Bell Canada equipment box this summer.
Since 2009, the Bell Box Murals Project has paid artists to paint murals on 48 outdoor equipment boxes throughout Toronto neighbourhoods. This summer 40 more murals will be painted – a different artist for each box.
The workshop is Wednesday, February 27th 6:30pm
Location: Community Matters Toronto
260 Wellesley St E. Unit 102 (Buzzer 8605)
