It’s ba-aaack!
What do haunted school houses, Toronto island, and art have in common? Well for starters, this year’s 4th Annual GHOST HOLE is making its way to the historical ArtScape Gibraltar’s Point Public School for a night of necromancing through the powers of art!
{The Old School House before it burnt down in 1888}
This will be the first ever Halloween event happening at the site, which boasts an impressive haunted history. Visitors of the old school have cited strange feelings and occurrences in the building which was rebuilt in 1909 after a fire burnt down the original school in 1888.
There are over 30+ exhibiting artists and over six musical performances scheduled for this
one-day only event .
GHOST HOLE IV takes place on Saturday October 27th from 2pm to midnight. Rain or shine.
12$ tickets on sale now at Soundscapes, 572 College St. All proceeds from event go to funding participating artists and supporting local
not-for-profit arts organizations.

We will be there, and if you have are in town, love the unknown, and have a taste for great art you will bet here too.
Looking especially forward to a psychomanteum designed by artist, Morris Fox.
These rooms are specifically designed for communication with the spirit realm through the use of mirrors. This technique of seeking mirrored surfaces to open portals to other dimensions has been used since the Ancients.
Artists have also been revered in the past as gifts from the Gods for their supernatural talent, and what better use of this psychic tendency than to help the invocation of the lost wandering souls holding on to the memories had within the school’s walls.
Hope we don’t see anything too scary – then again, we hope we do!
