The Oratory: Live at Kipling Square!
About this Event
oratory • /ˈôrəˌtôrē/ (noun)
- The art of discourse and public speaking.
- A divine place for ritual, prayer, or devotion.
After a guest attended our inaugural function in 2023 and shared, “This place feels like home”, we knew we had created something not only special, but necessary; Welcome to The Oratory!
With joyful urgency, we have co-imagined and co-designed an experience for curious minds seeking deeper connection to themselves, to one another, and to the world around them, through the inviting and transformative embrace of the arts.
Together we explore the questions we're often afraid to ask, but suspect everyone else is quietly wrestling with too. Think Saturday Night Live meets the energy of your favourite daytime talk show, with a touch of Sunday gathering (minus the dogma).
You're invited to experience:
- In depth conversation featuring special guests, JUNO-nominated and Canadian Radio Music Awards-winning artist Kreesha Turner, and Art Bus 2026 multidisciplinary artist and FOREIGNERZ creative director Jae Sterling.
- Live music with a curated ensemble and choir
- Audience games
Whether we're your entire Sunday plan or simply a small part of it, be our guest, bring a friend, and let our reimagined third space be your home away from home.
We can't wait to meet you at The Oratory!
