Islington's outdoor gallery in Etobicoke is one of the premier spots in Toronto for art lovers and mural hunters. Nearly a kilometer-long stretch of Dundas St W, from the Islington Ave to Kipling Ave, is studded with huge building size murals. This high-quality photo-realistic art portrays the history of the area and recounts the tales of previous generations. The majority of these murals were created by John Kuna during the past fifteen years.
Here is an index of all these murals that I covered during the previous month.
