This past week there was an exhibit at Gallery 1313 that paid tribute to Murray McKay.  Murray started modeling for college level life drawing classes in the 1990s.  Between then and his passing in 2024, he had a large impact on Toronto’s art community.  More than forty artists contributed their drawings or paintings of Murray to the exhibit which was simply titled “Murray”.
