TORONTO — The Toronto Society of Architects (TSA) is hosting its fourth annual Gingerbread City showcase and the edible creations are now on display virtually and in-person.
The event started in 2020 as a community building event amongst Toronto’s architectural community. A small in-person showcase will take place until Jan. 12 at The Maker Bean Café located at 1052 Bloor St. W. in Toronto.
This year’s submissions, received through an open call, include renditions of some of Toronto’s modern architectural landmarks including Ontario Place, City Hall, Cloud Gardens and the Fort York Visitor Centre.
The unique creations were made by architects, bakers and place makers from across the GTA.
Returning as part of this year’s virtual Gingerbread City showcase is Kids’ Main Street, a mixed-used streetscape featuring over 50 façades designed and built by children, ages two to 14. The façades were done as part of a series of gingerbread workshops held by the TSA, where children and their families learned about city building through cookies, icing, and lots of candy, states a release.
