Greek Canadian Heritage Project 

This weekend will be the last chance to see the Greek Canadian Heritage Project (GCHP) in Toronto. 

The GCHP was invited by Mike Cullen, owner of the community café, and Laura Heaney, curator, participated in the month long collaboration. The café’s walls are consistently decorated by the work of local artists and engage patrons while they enjoy Broadview Espresso’s coffee and snacks.

The segment of its Toronto Telegram exhibit from August 1 – 31 at Broadview Espresso – 817 Broadview Ave, Toronto, ON (Broadview Avenue just north of Danforth). 



Happy researching!
