Lakeside - Art looks at the Beaches

Gallery 1313 and the Toronto Environmental Alliance are collaborating on a curated art exhibit. We are interested in presenting an exhibit that examines and explores the impact of Toronto’s beaches on its community. Over the past century local beaches have transformed from being a hub of community life to polluted spaces, empty and cut off by major roads. Some of our original beaches have even been closed. But things are about to change. This summer a number of Toronto’s beaches will be flying the Blue Flag, an internationally recognized eco-label awarded to beaches that achieve high standards in areas such as water quality and safety. We invite artists to submit work that regards any aspect of experiencing Toronto’s beaches, from fun at the beach to dismay at the pollution.
