Movie nights
On July 16, The Well will also kick off its new Outdoor Movie Series with a free screening of Ratatouille under the glass canopy.
“These events are open to the public and designed to turn The Well into a summer gathering space for neighbours, families, and city explorers alike,” share organizers.
To ensure maximum comfort, guests are encouraged to bring a blanket and grab some snacks and drinks available on-site.
The movie starts at 8:30 p.m. and is slated to end around 10 p.m.
More movie titles will be announced for July 30 and beyond.
