And now, 8 questions with Michael Klein of MKG127.
What’s your business?
art gallery
How is your business unique?
I’ve had people come in and ask “what is this place ?”
I often show work that challenges people’s idea about what “art” should look like.
How long have you been in business here?
Opened June 2007
What drew you to be here on Ossington?
I thought the strip between Queen & Dundas felt like a unique, self contained little village. There were a few galleries that had located there too.
What changes have you seen on Ossington since your business has been here?
Many more places to eat & drink.
How do you see your business and Ossington five years from now?
Probably the opposite of what I would predict.
What is your favorite spot on Ossington, other than your own? and why?
I have a lot of favourites but here’s a couple I’ve been frequenting recently.
Superior Dry Cleaners, they do a great job , quick and very reasonable, recently even did a little repair job for me for free. I had the same hair stylist for about 20 years and when he retired last year I didn’t have to look very far for his
replacement, I tried Viva Hair, got a great cut, nice price & incredibly convenient.
MKG127 is located at 127 Ossington Street.
