In it’s 6th year, The Artist Project is an annual independent art fair that boasts 4 days of over 200 artists. Art lovers gathered to enjoy a huge collection of art from the independent artists in attendance at each of their booths. I went for the first time last year so I was looking forward to revisiting this large scale art fair unlike any other in Toronto. The opening party had a DJ at the Art Lounge, a variety of bites and cocktails to sample. It was great to spot friendly faces including our amazing musically-talented Clara Venice with Claire Taylor, The Artist Project’s show director, and Suresh Doss, creator of SpotlightToronto.com.
