Summary:
Located on the Brunswick Avenue side of 481 Bloor St., come by and check out artist Komi Olaf’s completed mural, “The Band of Storytellers”.
Also known as the “Blue Mural, it pays homage to the history Brunswick House, which also housed Albert’s Hall, formerly one of Toronto’s most popular venues for jazz and blues. The mural fits into the Bloor Annex’s larger Street Revitalization Project and will complement the planned parkette well. The piano keys are fitted with NFC chips – you can use your Android phone to interact with the mural to learn more about the blues, the building, and the people who played there.
