As if Hallowe’en alone didn’t provide enough public visual spectacle for urban dwellers, it’s worth reminding Spacing Wirers that there are some other more intentionally public artistic endeavours happening this weekend. a) On Saturday, 7a-11d artist Rita McKeough will be touring city sidewalks with a motorized tree in the area around 285 Dundas Street West at 1pm, 3pm and 5pm. b) Also on Saturday as part of ARCfest, the One Block Co-op will be prsenting One Block in Parkdale, a piece of outdoor theatre beginning outside the Parkdale Library at 2pm, 2:30pm, 3pm and 3:30pm. c) Then, on Sunday, you can work your sugar ya-yas out at Playground, an interactive outdoor performance at Trinity Bellwoods park that also falls under the ARCfest umbrella. Meet at the corner of Queen and Gore Vale at 2pm to rock the hopscothizzle. d) Last of all, you can round out your weekend with Gitmo, a piece of performance art taking place sidewalks outside the Great Hall Downstairs from 4 to 8, also part of Art for Real Change.
If you have a good time, you owe me a pack of Rockets.
