Art in Celebration of Doors Open








Merrily We Bowl Along

A Jack Among the Jills

Where is Sir Francis?

These three paintings were done to celebrate the occasion of "Doors Open" Toronto, at the Lawrence Park Lawn Bowling and Croquet Club.



May 26 & 27 from 10:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.
In 2012 this City of Toronto Parks and Recreation facility celebrates its 100th anniversary.

The greens and original clubhouse for the Lawrence Park Lawn Bowling & Croquet Club were built in 1912 in the beautiful Alexander Muir Gardens Ravine. Prior to 1923 it was a private club for the residents of the Lawrence Park Estates. 
 Doors Open visitors are invited to tour our clubhouse and greens, watch demonstrations of lawn bowling and croquet, and have a try at playing. (Please note that participants must wear either flat-soled or running-type shoes on the greens.)
