Free Event
A few additional notes about this event:
- "Formal" means whatever you feel good in. If you like to dress up fancy, this is a great opportunity to do so, but it is not at all required to attend.
- Light snacks will be provided.
- Masks are not required according to provincial mandates at this time. However, for the safety of those attending we highly encourage you to wear as mask if you are comfortable doing so.
- We will not be using any form of strobing or flashing lights during this event.
- This is a wheelchair accessible location that has gender neutral, single stall bathrooms available.
- Our aim is to have a scent reduced environment, so please refrain from using any scented products prior to attending. This not includes products with artificial scents like perfumes, colognes, body sprays but also products made with essential oils.
