Welcoming remarks were made by Consul General DJ Schneeweiss, from the Consulate General of Israel for Toronto and the Western Provinces, as well as by Cheryl Wetstein, Executive Director of the Canada-Israel Cultural Foundation, the member-supported group that has organized Toronto’s first-ever Spotlight on Israeli Culture.

Israeli artists, Gideon Tomaschoff and Nava Waxman, both of whom who now live and work in Toronto, attended the Opening and chatted with the guests about their works.
