Creative Code Toronto meetup at InterAccess
Join us for a Toronto meetup of creative coders! This will be a venue to get to know each other and see what's going on in the community. We'll have a space downtown and some food available.
We're partnering with [InterAccess](https://interaccess.org), a gallery, educational facility, production studio, festival, and registered charity dedicated to new media and emerging practices in art and technology!
* If you've got a project you've worked on in the past that you're proud of, we'd love to see it and for you to walk us through what went into it.
* If you're currently working on something or investigating some new ideas and feel like sharing, this would be a great time discuss your process so far!
* If you haven't done anything yet but are interested in creative coding, we'd love to see what works have inspired you.
Sign up here if you're interested in speaking! [https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1MsbtdvTGMNT75lqq4lnxydY4TczStAOZE1Ap8mQJKeM](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1MsbtdvTGMNT75lqq4lnxydY4TczStAOZE1Ap8mQJKeM)

🌳☕ ST. CLAIR WEST VILLAGE WALK, WYCHWOOD PARK & COFFEE ☕🌳
🌳☕ **ST. CLAIR WEST VILLAGE WALK, WYCHWOOD PARK & COFFEE** ☕🌳
Hidden Streets, Storybook Homes & A Cozy Café Finish
Some parts of Toronto feel like you’ve accidentally stepped into another world.
Join us for a relaxed social walk through **St. Clair West**, leading into the quietly tucked-away and exclusive **Wychwood Park** — one of the city’s most unique residential enclaves.
Wychwood Park is private, residential, and unlike anywhere else in Toronto. The homes are all architecturally distinct — no cookie-cutter builds here — and living there involves a waiting list, a board approval process, and community guidelines that preserve its character. It feels almost village-like… peaceful, artistic, and slightly secret.
This is not a formal historical tour.
It’s a social walk with beautiful surroundings and good conversation.

\*\*\*
🚶♂️ **What We’ll Do**
We’ll begin by walking west along St. Clair, enjoying the neighbourhood energy before heading into Wychwood Park for a gentle wander through its winding streets.
Afterward, we’ll make a short stop at **Artscape Wychwood Barns** to peek into the market space, next we make a quick stop at Mr. Binz where everything starts at $25 and after we will head to **Bakery Garden Cafe** for a warm drink and time to sit, chat, and connect.
Sometimes the best part of the walk is the pause at the end. ☕
We’ll eventually make our way back toward St. Clair Subway Station.
You’re welcome to leave at any time.
\*\*\*
❄️ **Weather & Expectations**
Please do not sign up if you’re not ready to walk in real winter conditions. This event will happen in snow, cold, or typical Toronto winter weather.
The only exception: if temperatures reach -20°C, the event will be canceled.
Bundle up. Dress properly. This is a winter walk.
Also — this is NOT a historical tour. I’ll share context casually, but the focus is social connection and enjoying the neighbourhood.

There’s something special about wandering somewhere that feels quietly exclusive — especially when you’re not wandering alone. 🌳✨

An Outdoor Night Walk of Light, Art & Waterfront Vibes
Let’s go chase some light.
Join us for **Lumière: The Art of Light** (formerly the Winter Light Exhibition) in its beautiful new home at **Trillium Park**.
This free outdoor exhibition transforms the park into an illuminated art experience, featuring works by Ontario artists who use light, innovation, and creativity to reimagine public space. This year’s curatorial theme is *“Renewal”* — celebrating the shift from winter into spring, longer days, and that subtle feeling that something new is beginning.
There’s something magical about walking by the water at night, surrounded by glowing installations and good company. It’s reflective. It’s playful. It’s very Toronto.

\*\*\*
🌉 The Plan
We’ll meet at the iconic **Princes' Gates**, then walk together over to Trillium Park.
We’ll spend about an hour exploring the installations at a relaxed pace — taking photos, chatting, and soaking it in.
Afterward, we’ll continue the evening with food and drinks by the waterfront. Most likely we’ll head to **Shoeless Joe's Sports Grill** along Queens Quay. We’ll hop on the TTC streetcar for a few stops to get there.
Art first. Social second. Best of both worlds.
\*\*\*
🧥 What to Bring
This is an outdoor nighttime event — please dress properly.
* Warm coat
* Hat & gloves
* Warm boots or sturdy shoes
* Something warm to drink
Comfort = enjoyment.
