I noticed these two little sweeties admiring the love-locks while the bride & groom were in the spotlight.
....these two stole the show for me :)
49:52 From Behind – This can be anything that has a front and back – a person, an animal, a flower. Use your imagination.
Sweet and swinging Country Music sounds from 'Colonel Tom and the American Pour', with Tom Parker, Peter Hill, Glenn Anderson, Rob Fenton, Sam Petite and Alex Pangman. Good time and dancing in the hay at the Distillery District. Redhead Alex Pangman, who could have been a Botticelli model, had a busy year. The singer does not perform indoors in public due to her immunity compromised condition after double lung transplant. She is a radio host at JazzFM and had mostly on-line concerts during the lockdowns. It's a miracle that she is still singing. I've seen her few times in 2024, but at least 2 concerts were postponed due to rain. Gooderham Distillery (1837) was closed in 1990, but Mill Street Brewery is making beer on the old grounds. Alex and Tom met at the Distillery and got married about 10 years ago.

Countdown to Christmas at Toronto’s Distillery District – Festive Market Lights and Historic Architecture
Colorful cut-paper banners in pink, yellow, orange, turquoise, and purple hang across a narrow laneway in Toronto’s Distillery District. Below them, a crowd gathers around a small wooden winter market booth with a glowing sign that reads “Pierogi Miska.” The surrounding buildings are tall red-brick industrial warehouses with green trim, creating a warm contrast to the festive decorations.
A quiet moment of wonder in the middle of the Christmas Market bustle.
A child crouches down in front of the miniature winter village, completely absorbed in the tiny snow-dusted trees, tunnels, and the little train looping beneath the huge decorated tree.
Even with crowds moving behind us and music filling the square, she created her own little world on the brick walkway — a reminder that the holidays are still full of small magic if you pause long enough to notice.

Stone Distillery
28 Distillery Lane
The largest and oldest building in the Distillery District is David Roberts Sr.’s distinctive Stone Distillery that opened in early 1861. Built of limestone brought from Kingston by schooners, the Stone Distillery remained the only building of limestone built by Gooderham & Worts, although many other red-brick buildings designed by Roberts and his son, David Roberts Jr., sit on limestone bases that help unify the site visually.
Other distinctive features were its location on the edge of Toronto Bay, the proximity of railway tracks running along what is now Stone House Walk, and its tie plates, corbels, and double-timber-beam construction. The exterior of the building looked remarkably similar to today’s except for the replacement of the lake by a parking lot.
The Historic Distillery District, includes quaint 19th century buildings that once housed the large Gooderham & Worts whiskey distillery.
The Distillery’s 19th-century brickwork and industrial gantries overlook the Saturday Winter Village crowd — Toronto’s layered history in motion.
Toronto's' Distillery District...
From the archives;
Toronto's Distillery District. is a former distillery that has been repurposed to protect the buildings from demolition by designating the space as historic and giving it new life by making it a pedestrian only neighborhood . The property was formerly the Gooderham and Worts Distillery, the largest distillery in the world at one time. Today, it is a National Historic Site with Victorian-era industrial architecture that has been transformed into a popular destination for arts, culture, shopping, and dining. The classic architecture preserved for generations to come.

The Word on the Street Outdoor Art Exhibition
The Word on the Street outdoor art exhibition showcases the work of Los Angeles-based artist Scott Froschauer.
ABOUT THE EXHIBITION
By using the materials and visual language of street signs, but replacing the traditional negative
wording (Stop, Do Not Enter, Wrong Way…) with positive affirmations, “The Word on the Street”
seeks to provide something that is missing from our daily visual diet.
The artist likes to imagine that people might walk past a sign and assume that it is just a typical
mundane warning, until that moment they recognize it as out of the ordinary. Hopefully, that moment
might lead viewers to wonder if other pieces might be “hidden” anywhere in their daily lives. In this
way, the work aims to change how the viewer interacts with the world at large.
The Distillery District is thrilled to exhibit these works, especially during this moment in time where
the idea of belief in both the city and ourselves is so important. We hope that you “stop” or “yield” at
each sign, as you navigate your way out of isolation and travel through life and the city once again.
Hopefully, “signs” that may have been overlooked before can be viewed with a new perspective and
fresh sense of appreciation; moving your mindset from the old ordinary to the new extraordinary.
ABOUT THE ARTIST
Scott Froschauer is an experimental artist who lives and works in Los Angeles. His background consists
of a structured education in Engineering, Theoretical Linguistics, Science, Art, Computer Programming
and Business along with practical experience in Fabrication, Design, Non-ordinary Reality, Experiential
Narrative, Venture Capital, Counterfeiting and Breathing.
Scott’s work is first and foremost experiential, focusing on pieces that are not easily captured through
photography and digital distribution. From the setting of reassuring street signs to the texture of burnt
canvas, Scott’s pieces are designed to be experienced in person.
Some of his work is an exploration in emotional connectedness, some work is about revolution,
particularly considering that our culture considers being connected to oneself as a revolutionary
act, but his primary focus is on exploring new spaces and techniques for communication.
For the duration of the exhibition, select works from Scott Froschauer will be available for purchase through The Distillery's Arta Gallery. Source: www.thedistillerydistrict.com/events/
