The original Hug Me Tree is back home on Queen Street West after a time spent at the Royal Ontario Museum hanging out with some superstars of the art world.
You may remember in my previous posts about the little tree that met it's demise and was almost destroyed by the City of Toronto. With quick citizen intervention the stump was saved and the tree went on to be displayed at the ROM while a replacement tree constructed of wood, chicken wire, paper mache and paint soon took over the spot and then it too disappeared.
The Hug Me Tree has new additions to it's rather simple character - tiny little homes perched at the top of the tree. So now that it's back take time to give it a hug.
