DesignTO Tours: Montague House

Join DesignTO for an exclusive house tour in Toronto’s Wychwood Park neighbourhood.

Dr. Kenneth Montague was born a collector. So it’s fitting that the Montague House – for Montague, artist and educator Sarah Aranha, and their two young children – was designed for an extensive art, object, and design collection all within a historic house that was sensitively renovated and expanded by the Studio for Contemporary Architecture (SOCA).

Within 5,000 square feet across 3 storeys, personal collections of art and design fill each space, including artworks from the Wedge Collection, one of the world’s most important privately owned collections committed to championing Black artists. Montague leverages his collection and his non-profit arts organization, Wedge Curatorial Projects, to create exhibitions and events that explore an expansive expression of Black identity.

Experience this special space yourself by joining the tour led by the homeowners, architect and SOCA partner Tura Cousins Wilson, and DesignTO Artistic Director Deborah Wang.
