On Sunday, May 11th we had a Mother's Day promotion ticket where guests could experience our stunning New Immersive Van Gogh exhibition and also receive a few perks with the purchase of their ticket. These perks included, A scone and cake, A gourmet box featuring four finger sandwiches, A self-serve coffee and tea station and some seating to enjoy their refreshments. It was a lovely way for families to spend time together while experiencing the magic of Van Gogh in a unique and memorable setting.
From May 28th - June 1st we're having another warehouse sale. This sale is taking place inside Gallery two and has been really successful. Thank you to our Retail team for all their hard work!
NEW INSTALLATIONS
Thank you to those of you who worked at VIP/Premium the last few weeks to assist our production team in the creation of this project. A special thank you to Gleb, Dan, and Oleksandr for putting this together. It looks beautiful and patrons are loving it!
Thank you to our Global production team for recreating this famous painting under our gallery one staircase. The painting this installation is referencing is titled La Chambre à Arles.
There are three authentic versions described in Van Gogh's letters, easily distinguishable from one another by the pictures on the wall to the right. Van Gogh started the first version during mid October 1888 while staying in Arles. He included sketches of the composition in a letter to his brother Theo and Gauguin. In the letter, Van Gogh explained that the painting had come out of a sickness that left him bedridden for days.
ROCK STAR OF THE MONTH
We wanted to let you know that we've brought back our Rock Star of the Month initiative. This program is our way of recognizing employees who go above and beyond in their department. This month's department is Box Office.
Each month, a different department will be responsible for selecting an employee who has demonstrated outstanding work. The selected employee will receive a $100.00 bonus before tax as a token of our appreciation. The winner will be announced via email at the end of each month.
Last Months Rock Star was Kim from Box Office.
For Rock Star of the month Retail selected Hayden!
For next month, the Tech Team will be in charge of selecting an outstanding employee.
We are delighted to announce that this month's Rockstar of the Month is:

We are please to announce that we will be welcoming a new show to Lighthouse Immersive called The Enigmatist. This show will take place in the Black Box Theatre on our second floor and run from June 10th - June 15th with a possibility of extension.
This summer, illusionist David Kwong – New York Times crossword maestro and master magician – brings his mind-bending experience The Enigmatist to Toronto. Part magic show, part puzzle quest, Kwong’s intriguing blend of sleight-of-hand, wordplay, and brain-twisting riddles pulls you straight into the mystery.

After enjoying the final time slot of our Immersive Van Gogh exhibition, patrons are invited to take part in a guided, step-by-step painting experience—no prior experience necessary!
