Allan Gardens, Nuit Blanche

Allan Gardens

Both Art and I have been quite busy with our different projects. It was the week before last, just a couple of days before Nuit Blanche, that Art finished a particularly involved piece. The Toronto Star came by Art's studio to photograph it and Luis Jacob (the artist who commissioned Art to sculpt it). It was to be installed in one of the pavilions at Allan Gardens. Last week we had co-ordinated our times to go together to see it.

Art hadn't been to Allan Gardens before so we took a stroll through the pavilions. The glass and iron cast structure was built in 1910.
