table of contents
Hello from Toronto!
This is Kawa from the System Solutions Department.
It's already mid-September, and the weather is starting to feel a bit like autumn.
Autumn is the season for art. So this time, I'd like to introduce you to the artistic side of Toronto 🍁
Art Gallery of Ontario
This is my favorite museum in Toronto.
On display are paintings by artists from Canada and Ontario, as well as paintings from around the world, including Monet, Mary Cassatt, and Chagall.
It is also unique because it is a museum that is rooted in the local community, with free admission for those under 25 and affordable annual passes.
It's spacious, so it's fun no matter how many times you go, and the atmosphere is calm, so you can relax all day long. The location is good as it is downtown 🦁
Kensington Market
It is a place called Amemura in Osaka, where various shops such as second-hand clothing stores gather.
An event called Pedestrian Sunday is held every Sunday in the summer, and the place is lively and lively with music, stalls, street art, and more.
There is street art and graffiti all over the city, which gives it a great atmosphere and I personally like it (don't go there too much at night)
TIFF (Toronto International Film Festival)
A well-known film festival. I was lucky that it coincided with my business trip.
Every year, movies from all over the world are screened at theaters all over the place, and it's a huge event with visiting celebrities.
Apparently it was a bit smaller this year due to the Hollywood strike, but the crowd was still amazing.
By the way, the Japanese film ``How Do You Live?'' directed by Hayao Miyazaki was shown.
Banksy Art
You can see works by Banksy, a world-famous street artist (?).
just down the street from
St. Lawrence Market along the wall of Goose Island Brewery. King Station is the closest station.
By the way, in Japan, it is said to be found in Tokyo and Nishinomiya City, Hyogo Prefecture.
Art in a little place
One of the interesting things about Toronto is that you can see all kinds of art just walking around the city, not just tourist spots.
Street cars and buses are convenient, but unless you're tired, we recommend walking.
