The Gardiner Museum hosted the G Party Gala celebrating the 12 Trees exhibition on December 1, 2016. The exhibition was inspired by the theme “Good for the Earth” curated by internationally-renowned artist and environmentalist, David Buckland. The installations are made from natural, recycled, or sustainable materials which help focus attention to environmental concerns.

The second annual Fête Chinoise is happening on November 19th, at Shangri-La Hotel Toronto. The theme this year is the Modern Celebration. It will feature top Canadian talent in event design, fashion and beauty, photography and videography, music and entertainment, cake and stationery, and the art of lifestyle.

We attended last year’s fantastic event and this year we’re proud to be a sponsor. Hope to see you there!

Cirque du Soleil is back for their latest performance, LUZIA, now until October 16th. The performance is inspired by Mexico’s mythology, vibrant culture, and rich colours, transporting you to a place suspended between dreams and reality. LUZIA is a magical spectacle, surprising you with its acrobatic performances, integrating rain and water, breathtaking landscape and the spirit of its people.

We can only describe the inaugural SMASH party at the Gardiner Museum of Ceramic Art as a fine coalescence of captivating contemporary art, engaging live performances, and incredible eats’ n’ drinks.
