I was invited to program craft-based installations for City of Craft, a contemporary craft fair and event. Fourteen installations were situated in the Theatre Centre, as well as offsite in venues on Queen Street West between Ossington Avenue and Gladstone Avenue. Artists included The Caribou Collective, Holly McClellan, Jacinta Lodge, Jen Spinner and Laurie McGregor, Lizz Aston, Meags Fitzgerald & Pamela Norrish, Megan Morgan, Marta Chudolinska, Serena McCarroll & Tyler Brett, Shanell Papp, Streetknit w. Ryan Kamstra, Susan Rowe Harrison and the Toronto Hyperbolic Crochet Reef. An group exhibition called Home and Away (and In-Between) was featured concurrently at the Theatre Centre's street level cafe space.
