A dynamic metropolis, Toronto teems with culture and entertainment, the former evident in the city’s many museums, where visitors in Fall will find a diverse roster of exhibitions.
The capital of the Canadian province of Ontario, the city’s most distinctive landmark is the iconic CN Tower, standing some 553 metres high. But impressive as it is, culture vultures visiting Toronto are better off staying at ground level, where a wide number of museums can be found dotted across the city. You’ll find exhibitions taking place within their confines at all times of year, with Fall being no exception.
Here are 7 of the best.
The iArtS Museum’s 3D illusion art exhibits are a vibrant showcase of creativity, featuring over 22 art pieces, many masterfully hand-painted by a talented local artist. Highlights include stepping into the Upside Down Room, inspired by Houdini’s Chinese underwater chamber illusion, where reality flips on its head, and you feel as though you’re defying gravity; experiencing the Big Small Illusion in the impossible chess game, where one moment you’re a giant, and the next, you’re tiny; and marvelling at how the stunning Anamorphic Art plays with perspective, transforming flat images into mind-bending 3D visuals. Throughout the exhibition, interactive props enhance the fun, making each artwork a playground for creativity and endless photo ops.
