Spanning our West Block staircases and courtyard, the installation reimagines the site as an urban sitting room \u2014 an open and welcoming place where stories, cultures, and communities intersect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">Curated by The Bentway and presented in partnership with Choice Properties, the Step-Up Series will bring annual public art commissions to West Block, inviting visitors to experience the site in new and unexpected ways while contributing to a more connected and inclusive public realm along Toronto\u2019s waterfront.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">Join us on May 9 for a special Artist Talk &amp; Neighbourhood Walk beneath the Gardiner Expressway, led by The Bentway team and exhibiting artists Anahita Akhavan and Stanzie Tooth. The guided tour will explore two new public artworks shaping CityPlace\u2019s evolving cultural landscape, including the unveiling of \u0645\u062c\u0644\u0633 Majles \/ Sitting Room at West Block.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">Part guided walk, part celebration of public space, the event invites neighbours, visitors, and the broader community to gather, reflect, and experience how art can transform the city around us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li class=\"\">May 9, 2026<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"\">Begins at The Bentway Studio, 55 Fort York Blvd<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"\">Tour concludes at West Block, 500 Lake Shore Blvd W<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.eventbrite.ca\/e\/west-block-staging-grounds-opening-artist-talk-and-neighbourhood-walk-tickets-1986575129690\">Register now for the Artist Talk &amp; Neighbourhood Walk.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">And stay tuned for future Summer programming happing at our West Block staircase.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:33.33%\">  \n<style>\n    .gmnoprint, .gm-style-cc {\n        display: none !important;\n    }\n<\/style>\n\n <div class=\"location-block\">\n\n         <div class=\"wp-block-media-text is-stacked-on-mobile image-box flat\" id=\"overview\">\n            \n            <div id=\"map\"><\/div>\n\n            <div class=\"wp-block-media-text__content\">\n                <h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-large-font-size\">Emplacement<\/h3>\n\n\n\n                <p><strong>500 Lake Shore Blvd W.<br>\nToronto, Ontario<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n                <div class=\"wp-block-buttons mt-4 is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n                        \n                        <div class=\"wp-block-button alt\">\n                            <a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/maps.app.goo.gl\/6mtbwqSmFc4jcxXN7\" target=\"_blank\">Google Cartes<\/a>\n                        <\/div>\n                                                        <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n\n    <script>\n            window.mapAddress =  \"500 Lake Shore Blvd W.
