Unfortunately, it is with much sadness that we have to move out of Akin Lansdowne at the end of this month. Most of the current studio members have thankfully been relocated to other Akin locations.
To celebrate our vibrant Akin Lansdowne community and a building we have loved being in for many years we will be hosting a farewell party in Studio 203 on Friday, January 31 starting at 8pm. This is a public event - everyone is welcome!
When: January 31st, 2020 Where: 87 Wade Avenue, Unit 203, Toronto Admission: Free
Installations by current Akin members to be featured in the studio space.
Cash Bar Available! $1 from every drink sale will be donated towards Akin’s Rent Relief Fund. *cash only because we won't have internet anymore
Accessibility: Akin Lansdowne is not currently wheelchair accessible. Akin regrets this barrier to access.
When you arrive at Akin Lansdowne's entrance at the north side of the building, there are 6 steps into the building to access the building entrance. There is a flight of stairs with 10 steps, a landing, then 10 steps with a handrail leading to the 2nd floor where studio 203 is located.
There are no grab bars in the washroom and the toilets are not raised. The washroom on the second floor is level. There is a narrow gap between the countertop and the shower.
Getting there: By TTC: Akin Lansdowne is walking distance from Lansdowne Subway Station and is accessible by the Bloor/Danforth subway line (Line 2) and the 47 Lansdowne Bus.
By car: There is no reserved onsite parking but there is street parking on Wade Ave, Paton Road, and Lansdowne Ave - please check the street signs for hours. For after hours parking there is a Green P lot located at 695 Lansdowne Ave.
