🌵A variety of cozy galleries and outdoor murals await you along the Little Portugal Toronto BIA stretch of Dundas West- from Lansdowne to Shaw.

This free Saturday afternoon event features exhibitions by local artists, painters, photographers and award winning muralists. The Gallery Crawl is a part of the larger series of events called Calefaction. Calefaction focuses on businesses between Sheridan to Brock- those that were within the sinkhole street closure. We know businesses outside the closure also suffered due to lack of TTC service, so we are hosting some neighbourhood wide events as part of this larger series, including a Vintage Crawl!

Stephen Bulger Gallery, 1356 Dundas St W
showing: JOHN MAX First and Last

Myta Sayo Gallery, 1518 Dundas St W
