P.s!: Summer Festival Season is Here!

May Blog Roundup & June Preview

I can't believe June is already here. May was such a busy and hectic month! Between all the amazing things happening in Toronto, It was hard to fit in my family and friends and me time!

Some of my favourite moments from May had to be the Scotiabank CONTACT Photography Festival exhibits at MOCCA and Gladstone Hotel, my Belt it Out Style Post, writing about the amazing Ireland Park, and of course Doors Open Toronto weekend!

Ireland Park Review

Along the waterfront, at the bottom of Bathurst Street lies one of my favourite public art installations in Toronto. Nestled between the abandoned Canada Malting Silos, Lake Ontario and a construction barricade is one of the most serene and heartbreaking places in Toronto - Ireland Park.

Until recently, I was among the many that never knew Ireland Park even existed. It opened in 2007 and then closed in 2010 for several years due to surrounding construction. A few months ago, I heard about an Irish monument down by the harbourfront, so last St. Patrick's Day a friend and I decided to go in search of it. And I'm so glad I did.
