Description
Explore and discover the Riverdale Hub located at 1326 Gerrard St. East in the heart of Little India! Founded by a grassroots Women’s Organization, our 100 year old building has been re-imagined as an environmentally sustainable space that promotes community collaboration, social innovation, and neighbourhood revitalization. Our unique building features a beautiful rain water garden, an eco-roof and an organic fair trade café, The Social Gardener, once featured on the Steven and Chris TV show. Featured on the third floor is an airy 14-foot high ceiling, exposed brick event space, and a zen yoga studio. Stop by for a chat and unearth the secrets behind Riverdale Hub. Enjoy a coffee or latte with some freshly baked desserts, hot out of the oven and made on-site! Home to last year’s Contact Photography Festival, an event which set the stage for the opening of the east end Toronto-based, Riverdale Gallery, which features local, international, and emerging artists.
