The evening begins with a cocktail hour in our bayside prelude room, followed by a buffet dinner catered by DiSalvo’s, and capping off the night is an incredible performance by Shipyard Kitchen Party with a performance of Tom Thomson’s Wake!

his mentor and his lover gather to share memories of Canada’s most famous
artist. But did any of them really know the man? Through
their diverging songs and stories, a new portrait of an iconic Canadian
emerges.

rousing folk music score by the Shipyard Kitchen Party band this original
Canadian musical will inspire and entertain audiences of all ages.
