Caribana is said to be Toronto’s “celebration of colour and culture” and there’s one event that fuses those two concepts to a tee – COLOURblind! A visual arts exhibition put on by ‘The Association of African Canadian Artists’. The show features over 60 original paintings and sculptures that have been influenced by the diversity of a people. The theme this year is Masks – “What is it about masks that have fascinated so many cultures for thousands of years?” asks the COLOURblind! website.
When? The show starts July 24 and ends September 6.
Where? The Historic Distillery District – 55 Mill Street in the Distillery District ( Map to this event)
