SUMMARY:Databells Experience: An immersive art installation
DESCRIPTION:Databells is an immersive experience featuring a quirky and eclectic collection of reclaimed bells (from cowbells\, to jingle bells\, to doorbells\, to giant bells)\, all interconnected via sophisticated software which makes each bell chime in time to a large variety of statistics. Bells might ring when: “a star is born in our galaxy”\, “someone dies due to smoking”\, “a ship passes through the Suez canal”\, “an Amazon package is delivered”\, “Someone in this room just farted”\, and so on. This conceptual art piece gently guides the experiencer through a winding path of custom wood tables\, all arranged in an experiential statistical symphony.\n\nThis special exhibition experience is the first public showcasing of the Databells art installation by Rich Loen. As an immersive experience\, it dares to promise intrigue\, wonder\, whimsy\, and a sense of discoverability for you to explore.\n\nVisits must be scheduled through Eventbrite\, and will time slots are available from 10am-3pm (Thursday to Sunday) from September 25th to October 17th.\nREGISTER NOW

SUMMARY:2025 Eastern Ontario Housing Summit
DESCRIPTION:People are moving to Eastern Ontario\, and we need to be ready. \nOver the next 25 years\, Eastern Ontario is projected to experience the fastest population growth in the province. \nSpanning from Peterborough to Ottawa\, and from Algonquin Provincial Park to the Seaway Valley\, the region is expected to grow by 35.2% by 2051 – outpacing even the GTA (22%). \nThe 2025 Eastern Ontario Housing Summit will explore how to meet this rising demand\, even in a challenging market\, and ensure a sufficient housing supply for residents today and tomorrow. \nThe Ontario Home Builders’ Association Eastern Ontario Regional Group consists of 7 HBAs – Cornwall\, Haliburton County\, Kingston-Frontenac\, Lanark-Leeds\, Greater Ottawa\, Peterborough and the Kawarthas\, and Quinte. These HBAs are home to over 800 firms in the residential construction and professional renovation industry. \nLast year’s Summit welcomed 325+ attendees from 35+ municipalities across the region – and we hope to see you again this year!
