If you’re looking to add some creativity to your social calendar, join SOCIAL SPACE for an
unforgettable experience offering unique series of pop-up art events blending art, socializing, and philanthropy into one vibrant package.
But what exactly is SOCIAL SPACE? A gathering of art enthusiasts and creators coming together
in urban settings, surrounded by curated artwork in a relaxed atmosphere. It’s not just about
admiring art; it’s about immersing yourself in a community-driven space where you can meet
the artists, purchase their work, and contribute to a local charity—all while enjoying a laid-back
social vibe. The events are curated by artist Gordon Leverton + partner Nancy Cabral-Leverton.
The inaugural Ottawa event, hosted at the historical home of Grant and Sandy Macleod,
promises to be a feast for the senses. Featuring original and one-of-a-kind artworks by Gordon
Leverton, Andrew Milne, and the dynamic duo Maureen Bennett and Brent McGillivary, this
event offers a rare opportunity to experience art in an intimate setting.
Art enthusiasts can get a sneak peek and even purchase artwork in advance starting April 25th
on socialspaceevent.com, with a portion of the proceeds going to The Ottawa Food Bank. For
the grand opening on June 7th, doors open at 6 PM, inviting guests to immerse themselves in
an evening of art, socializing, and light refreshments courtesy of McKeen Metro and award-
winning Niagara + Aboriginal Wines from Enogastronomic Society – Vine & Dine, served by Wine Sommelier Roisin. Adding to the ambience, DJ Gordon Leverton will be spinning sweet tunes throughout the night.
The success of SOCIAL SPACE wouldn’t be possible without the support of its sponsors: The Macleod’s McKeen Metro, Lyne Burton + Dominique Team ENGEL&VÖLKERS – Ottawa Central, Enogastronomic Society – Vine & Dine, served by Wine Sommelier Roisin, Partake Brewery and Actuality Live have all come together to make this event a reality. Attendees can even experience the power of Augmented Reality with Actuality Live, viewing art as it would appear on their own walls.
