Moving from a construction site on ground floor, guests navigated to the fourth floor, which was transformed into a temporary art gallery for two compelling artworks: a new interactive art installation by renowned Calgary artists, Caitlind r.c. Brown and Wayne Garrett and a mechanical wonder by British artist Peter William Holden. Closed toes shoes recommended.

After that, guests climbed the stairs once more to a once-in-a-lifetime molecular food and drink experiment, conducted by acclaimed chefs:

• Chefs Michele Aurigemma, Paul Stoffel and Sean Thornhill from Q Haute Cuisine,
• Chefs John Michael MacNeil and Alison Bieber,
• Chef Darren MacLean from Skokunin Izakaya,
• Chef Liana Robberecht and Ronnie Gillman from WinSport,
• Mixologist Christina Mah of Raw Bar, and
• Mixologist Clarice Gordon of Hotel Arts.
