"The exhibit features video and audio recordings and articles about the beach, beach ephemera, beach chairs and even beach balls, capturing the Bloordale Beach vibe."
"Bloordale Beach was a spot loved by the community, created on a vacant gravel lot during the COVID-19 pandemic to bring joy in difficult times."
Bloordale Beach was a symbolic beach created on a vacant gravel lot in Toronto during the COVID-19 pandemic. Located near Bloor and Dufferin streets, it became a beloved local spot, despite being far from any real beach. The art exhibit at Urbanspace Gallery revives memories of the beach through videos, audio recordings, and beach-themed artifacts. Shari Kasman, the artist behind the idea, noted the importance of joy during trying times and how the beach emerged from a desire to create a fun and lively atmosphere in the urban environment.
