Gather in the Garden: A 1920s Picnic at Spadina

The 1920s picnic is coming to Spadina Museum on June 14 – a slightly scaled back version of the yearly garden party, giving guests the chance to step into the Golden Age of Jazz music for an afternoon they won’t soon forget, featuring live music, swing dancing, vintage fashion, and picnicking on the mansion’s sweeping lawn.

This retro-themed afternoon affair will feature performances from local acts Ben Harvey and His Ornamentals and Shraddha Pai & the Hot Cakes, while swing dance lessons will be provided at various times throughout the day, led by Swing Toronto.
