Check out the neighbourhood!

We have been seeing a dramatic increase in the number of out-of-towners coming to see the gallery. Often people will drive down from Toronto for the day but we are also seeing people from Europe and all over North America. If you are considering making a trip to see th egallery maybe you’ll also be interested in seeing some of my neighbours. The Innuit Gallery, now in their 26th year, is just around the corner. A great gallery still run by the original owners it is a pleasure to drop in and see their selection Currently they have a wonderful selection of wall hangings that is not to be missed. A gallery that  has been around so long that they still use the original spelling of Innuit with two n’s! So often people interested in art are also interested in books and a few doors away is Attic Books, probably Ontario’s largest antiquarian bookstore located in a wonderful period building. Three floors to tempt any bibliophile. For the Ian Fleming fan they have just acquired a first edition that uses the now-famous phrase ’shaken not stirred’ for the first time. Anyone planning to stay over can contact me and get my code for the lovely London Delta Armouries and you’ll receive a special rate. London has many wonderful restaurants but you can’t beat cheap and cheerful at Scot’s Corner for a good home cooked meal and a choice of 26 beers on tap. So when you come to London be prepared to do a few things. It’s a nice place, you’ll enjoy it….it is often thought of as Halifax without the water!
