On November 2, 2011, T.S.H.s Prince Albert II and Princess Charlene of Monaco attended the opening of the highly anticipated exhibition, Grace Kelly: From Movie Star to Princess, at the TIFF Bell Lightbox in Toronto, Canada.
This special exhibition, based on the Grimaldi Forum’s The Grace Kelly Years, chronicles the late princess’s life:
…told through her personal correspondence, famous fashions, films and a trove of memorabilia. Highlights include letters from “Hitch,” the original Hermès purse that was eventually named for Kelly, her Oscar for The Country Girl and home videos peppered with famous faces. source
After the opening of the exhibition the princely couple along with hundreds of VIPs attended a private reception in honor of the prince and princess of Monaco.
If you happen to live in or around Toronto or may be visiting the area in the future why not visit this special exhibition. It ends on January 22, 2012.

I usually attend open-air exhibitions because I find them far more interesting than walking inside museums and looking at some “boring art”. However, this exhibition looks like it is a good time to make an exception. Grace Kelly was a fascinating person so I hope I won´t be disappointed after seeing the exhibit.
