DANIEL HO / SPECIAL TO THE BEAVER The British cars are coming The 28th annual British Car Day is once again coming to town with a display of more than 1,000 classics at the Bronte Creek Provincial Park on Sunday, Sept. 18. The event is the largest one-day British car show in North America, organized by the Toronto Triumph Club. It will feature more than 1,100 British cars, representing 50 dif- ferent manufacturers and models from Austins to Zephyrs. This years featured marques will be the Jaguar E-Type, Triumph TR4 and the MG Midget, which are all celebrating 50 years since first production. There will be more than 60 vendors sell- ing everything from traditional British cloth- ing and food to those hard to find classic car parts, tools and accessories. Those who wish to show off their British classic car, can pre-register at www.british- carday.com. Only registration is $15 or $20 at the gate. Gates open at 8 a.m. for show cars. Gates open at 10 a.m. for visitors. Admission to the show is free, however, parking fees apply at the park. Oakville Galleries opens two exhibits Oakville Galleries is opening up two new exhibits on Sept. 24, both of which have been curated by Marnie Fleming. Marla Hladys Rooms exhibit will open at the Gairloch Gardens location and Denyse Thomasos Kingdom Come exhibit will open at Centennial Square. Both artists will be available on opening day to chat with people. From 2:30 to 3:30 p.m. people will be able to meet and greet with Thomasos at the Centennial Square location, and from 3:30 to 5 p.m. people will have a chance to speak with Hlady at Gairloch Gardens. Hlady is a Toronto multi-disciplinary art- ist who explores the mechanics and expres- sive possibilities of structure and sound. Her multimedia installation works to draw atten- tion to the generally unnoticed sonic ele- ments of Gairloch estate, encouraging view- ers to see sound. To honour the 40th anniversary of Sheridan Colleges art and art history pro- gram, the alumnus Thomasos was invited to create a site-specific wall painting at the gal- lery in collaboration with the schools cur- rent and recently graduated students. The resulting work combines the visual proper- ties of indigenous dwellings and eco-friendly designs to create what the artists call a green utopian kingdom. Rooms closes on Nov. 6 and Kingdom Come runs until Nov. 13. For more information, visit www.oakvil- legalleries.com. Dominik Kurek can be followed on Twitter at @DominikKurek
