The Canada Ireland Foundation is getting a new building in Toronto
Toronto’s waterfront is getting a new arts venue courtesy of the Canada Ireland Foundation, who is giving new purpose to what was once an administrative building for a malting company.
The designated heritage building used to belong to the Canada Malting Company, and will now be used for art, culture and heritage programming.
The foundation is dubbing it “the Corleck.” The Corleck is an Irish stone idol that was found by a farmer in the first or second century AD. The three-faced head is made of limestone, and is believed by many today to represent the trinity of the past, present and future.
