CRAFTY HAPPENING: Craftification at the Art Gallery of Mississauga (July 1)

A note from Leah, Reverend Mother of the Toronto Church of Craft:

craftification

The Toronto Church of Craft is teaming up with the Art Gallery of Mississauga for their Canada Day events. We'll be transforming the concrete landscape (or, a chunk of it) outside the gallery into a craftified 'green' space. Oh yeah, with kids!!

This'll include greening the concrete, hanging pennants, sewing, knitting, & crocheting cozies for surrounding metal poles and structures, and just allowing art to be created and placed in the landscape.

For those unfamiliar with the outdoors surrounding the gallery - it is located across the street from Square One Shopping Centre. Not exactly 'lovely'.

Come out, help out, or just show up and watch suburban kids realise that there's more to downtown than malls and cement.

This will all happen on July 1 from 10am to 2pm in front of the Mississauga Gallery of Art, 300 City Centre Drive. As mentioned, this is across the street from Square One Shopping Centre.
