Just one week after the first day of spring, the fourth annual PROM event at the Royal Ontario Museum attempted to bring some Miami heat straight from South Beach. Called "PROM IV: Ocean Drive" and hosted by the museum's Young Patron's Circle, the benefit transformed the museum’s Samuel Hall Currelly Gallery and the Michael Lee-Chin Crystal to look like the famous Delano Hotel and flew in two DJs who play South Beach clubs—DJ Mateo and Canada's own DJ JoJo Flores—to spin tunes throughout the night.

“It was like a stay-cation,” said Candice Best of Best PR Boutique, who co-chaired the event with Jennifer Bassett. “Guests experienced all of the heat and energy of what happens in the Delano Hotel on a Saturday night—but at the ROM.” Organizers drew inspiration from the museum’s new Schad Gallery of Biodiversity, which will house a live coral reef and opens May 12.

Summer Music Conference to Showcase Fashion, Films, Industry Seminars

The inaugural Summer Music Conference (SMC)—being hosted by Polson Pier (and close to 100 other venues across the city) from July 23 to 27—is shaping up to include everything from fashion shows to film screenings, business seminars, and DJ workshops. "There are seven festivals taking place in five days under the umbrella of one conference, so it's music, art, film, and fashion," media spokesperson Koryn Greenspan said of the conference, founded by international record producer Otiz F. Angel.

"For a while my partners and I had been looking at creating this year's event in San Francisco. Then I was booked to perform at an event in Toronto. I instantly fell in love with the city...We hooked up with a Canadian team, and three months ago we decided to bring SCM to Toronto," Angel said in a media statement. MORE >>
