I came here on a Monday in August with my son after it was suggested by a friend who lives in…read moreToronto. We really enjoyed it! There is a ton to do here. An outdoor playground (mostly for really little kids), and indoor playground (that even my 11-year-old got a kick out of) plus lots of hands on exhibits like panning for gold and grinding/polishing rocks using special equipment. The highlight was the underground mine tour. We did the heritage tour which focuses on the history of mining. A tour guide leads you through different eras of Canadian mining history starting in the 1800's, into the 1950's and finally into the 2000's. Our tour guide was Claire and she was great. We spent a few hours here but we could have easily spent more time if we didn't have to get on the road. Definitely a great and educational place to spend with little kids!

We enjoyed it here, visiting my cousin in Sudbury...the big nickel is a sight to see. We did the…read moreunderground mine tour, and we thoroughly enjoyed it. I really liked how they split up the tour into different time periods and showed you the conditions and equipment that were used. The tour guide was pretty good and very interactive with the kids. It was cute before you got onto the tour you had to "check in" and take a picture of yourself as a miner. The elevator ride down was neat as was the video they played before you started the tour. They have a pretty small but good gift shop, we got some geodes that were neat. I liked their rock wall and all of the history and interesting tidbits that were all around this place. I think it is a good addition to this town and good for getting some history and background in while you are there or even if you live there.

One time, at band camp...no just kidding; one time when I was 14, there was a band called…read moreFurnaceface and I really liked this band. I heard they were coming to Sudbury and were going to play an all ages show so I did everything I could to come up with a bit of money and a ride, grabbed my best friend, and experienced my first ever live music show - at the Townehouse Tavern. This first experience has defined a lot of my life - music choices, friend choices, etc. I've gone on to see many shows and have many drunken (and sober) nights at the Townehouse. When I go home for a visit, it's always on the agenda. The bar has been going strong for close to 25 years now, booking a wide array of bands and musicians, some barely known and some well known. For a city like Sudbury, it's truly an impressive thing. I thought that perhaps I was being biased by giving the Townehouse 5 stars, based on my affinity for live music and pubs and the fact that there is a serious lack of each in Sudbury. But I don't think that's it - this is just a genuinely great bar, down to earth, good music, good people, good times. When you're booking amazing talent like Bedouin Soundclash, Bocephus King, etc. and won't submit to crap music, you deserve 5 stars. I can't sum it up much better than Paul does on the Townehouse website - there is a great about us section that outlines the history of the venue. My only complaints would be that the washrooms are kind of yuck and that the bouncers are sometimes a bit jerky because they work at the coolest and most 'alternative' bar in town. But, that counts for a few minutes of your night and then you're whisked back into 1994 or 2000 or whenever it was that you first happened to start frequenting the Townehouse - and I mean this is a good way. Your friends are there, a good band is playing, you play a round of foos and drink some beer. Could you really ask for anything more on a Sudbury Saturday Night?

These multimedia works are meditative yet not self-indulgent. They reminded me of my own dreams as I looked and listened. The alternative fair is an ambitious exhibition in which thirty-some artists artists work from an empty retail unit at The Rainbow Centre. They have been given shopping carts to incorporate in their projects. Many of the works not only dealt with the icon of the shopping cart but with their relationship to the exhibition site. Christian Pelletier, for instance, an artist from Sudbury, exhibited a piece titled Borgia on My Mind, which explored the history of what was torn down to build the mall. Residents told stories of what places they frequented, and their journeys between them were mapped. Vintage photographs completed the tableaux. Another artist, Marc Losier, who is from Toronto, provides archival images he found in Toronto for Museological Imaginary, which indicate how he explores Sudbury as a site from the perspective of an outsider. Alexia Turlin, a Geneva-based artists, also explores the city as an outsider but through public participation. For Swiss Post she has interested mall visitors draw their perception of Switzerland on a postcard. She then has a Swiss artist mail the participants and "artist-made" card. Their are many other memorable works too. Ultimately, the exhibition made me think more of my surroundings. In that way art enhanced my life - at least momentarily.
