TORONTO, July 9, 2024
/CNW/ - Something, an event company putting on immersive
experiences in Toronto, is excited
to announce their newest project: DreamHouse. This 19+ colourful
surrealist art party will transform three floors of the historic
Isabella Mansion, and will run for one night only on July 27th, 2024.
This is one of the largest events the Victorian home will run
before construction begins on a 69 storey condo. The City of Toronto has forced developers to
revise initial demolition plans, but the venue will likely be
closed to the public indefinitely.
Something hopes to bring this event back in other heritage
buildings across Toronto and
beyond to celebrate the history that audiences don't often get to
connect with. This project is sponsored by Smirnoff's WeDoWe
Campaign, which celebrates the power of the collective. 10% of the
proceeds from this event will be donated to The ArQuives, a local
organization that preserves Toronto's 2SLGBTQIA+ history.
"I am delighted that Something has chosen Foy House for their
immersive art experience", said Georgia
Wilder, current leaseholder of the mansion. "From
Marie Couvier, renowned for
introducing high art to her Victorian guests, to the office of
social justice lawyer Clayton Ruby,
who defended The Body Politic, this is a mansion of many histories.
I can't wait to see Something make their own history at Foy House
while supporting The ArQuives!"
Something is excited to open the doors to their community of
creatives. This event will allow guests to explore the entire
mansion and interact with an eccentric cast of Toronto artists and performers. While many
plans will remain a secret until the event, guests can expect to be
wow-ed with impromptu dinner parties, personalized poetry, a secret
garden, and even a food fight.
Victoria Gubiani, one of
Something's Co-Founders says, "We're excited to show guests all of
the intricate secrets and surprises that we've been working on for
months. We want people to feel like they are a part of something
magical. They are the art too!"
