Free Entertainment for Summer 2012


I, like many of you, budget very carefully, count what pennies are left, and then realize there's not much money left to spend on entertainment like I used to do.  Last year, I searched for free entertainment in Toronto and the GTA areas and was surprised (in a good way) at what was free: movies, concerts and museums.  This year, again there are free gospel concerts, free jazz concerts, free outdoor movies (indoors as well), and even some museums have a free day every week within certain hours.


 FREE MOVIES:
Toronto, ON 
Toronto Reference Library  (416)395-5577
