TORONTO — Salima Punjani still loves the Ethiopian cotton scarf, despite the heartache woven into its fluorescent yellow fabric. So she decided to donate the scarf to the Museum of Broken Relationships, where it will be displayed alongside other artifacts of heartbreak in a Toronto exhibition opening Saturday. The Harbourfront Centre marks the 53rd stop in the Museum of Broken Relationships’ worldwide showcase of the mementos and memories that are left behind when love ends, organizers say. “The fact that it’s part of this Museum of Broken Relationships feels like this collective way of moving forward,” Punjani said. “It validates those feelings of loss and pain, but together.”The Museum of Broken Relationships runs at the Harbourfront Centre from June 29 to Sept. 8.
