Art Toronto gets sales boost from baseball World Series

Art Toronto, Canada's largest art fair, took place from October 23-26 at the Metro Toronto Convention Centre, coinciding with the first two games of the MLB World Series between the Toronto Blue Jays and the Los Angeles Dodgers at the adjacent Rogers Centre. Despite concerns that the baseball championship might divert attention and sales, the fair saw increased attendance and a boost in purchases in the C$50,000 to C$100,000 range, according to director Mia Nielsen. Gallerists reported a positive mood, with the National Gallery of Canada even acquiring a work from Central Art Garage. The synergy between the events energized the city, though it worsened Toronto's notorious traffic.
