Christmas may be over, but the city continues to embrace the holiday spirit. Recently I stopped by Evergreen Brickworks to visit the Winter Village before it's close at the end of the year. Despite the freezing temperatures in Toronto these past few days, my afternoon hike through the property was a lovely respite from the couch. Evergreen Brickworks is one of my favourite places in the city to photograph, as each season offers a new perspective - whether that be a different viewpoint or the changing foliage.

The past six months have been busy, both professionally and personally. Yorkdale's East Expansion opened to the public in October, an exciting project that was an honour to be a part of - and as you can see below, a cause for celebration. In December I joined AGO Next, a unique membership program for art lovers under 40 organized by the Art Gallery of Ontario. I've had so much fun previewing new exhibits (so far, Mystical Landscapes, Tributes & Tributaries, Anthony Caro, and a special talk on art collecting), listening to talented curators discuss their theses, and socializing with young people who are also passionate about art. In January my partner and I moved to a new place, and we've spent almost every weekend since hunting for the perfect furniture. Despite the unbearably cold weather that typically engulfs Toronto from November to March, I find that the city has a thriving winter culture of exhibits, outdoor festivals, and exciting food and beverage offerings that help temper the winter blues affecting all of us.
