All through the gallery spaces you will hear short presentations on unique pieces of furniture and their fascinating stories.
We will unravel together the mysteries of sextants, theodolites and other magic machines.
This tour is a journey through time, one rich with tales of tradition and innovation, heritage and creativity.
We would appreciate arrival 5 -10 minutes before your scheduled tour for check-in. We are unable to accommodate late arrivals.
This is a private home with no architectural changes since the 1870s when it was built. It still has the original hardwood floors as well as unique Persian carpets and rugs throughout so to protect it all we kindly ask guests to remove their shoes. We encourage you, if possible, to bring house shoes, soft soles. The house is not wheelchair accessible and there are no public washrooms.
Art can be appreciated at any age but please note the presentations during the tour are not easily accessible to a young audience, therefore we suggest at least 14 years old and up (please do connect with us if you have questions).
Please travel light while visiting - no food, water, large bags, strollers, and other non-essential items. Photography and video are not permitted inside the house. You are however welcome to capture the stunning exterior. Touching the artwork or objects on display is not permitted. The space is a smoke free building.
Tickets are non-refundable.
