a weekly list of Toronto art exhibition openings and events 004

October 8th to October 13th

Nicole Ji Soo Kim's "Mourning Notation (on gestures of hope), 2024" at Zalucky Contemporary's summer group exhibition titled, "Wine on the cuff, dirt on the collar."

I’ve been going to gallery openings, artist talks, curatorial tours, and other events consistently for about a year now and I thought it would be helpful to have a weekly list of Toronto openings and events for those interested. I typically stay up-to-date through individual email newsletters, Instagram pages, by word of mouth, or by working/volunteering at art fairs and festivals. Will occasionally include screenings, book launches, book fairs, and more. Links to everything below!
