Frequently Asked Questions

 

About the event

This year’s Great Jewellery Heist, presented by BMO is happening at the Power Plant Contemporary Art Gallery at Harbourfront Centre. In small groups of up to six (6) people, guests at the 10th anniversary Heist will be guided through a gallery-like experience that has been specially curated to celebrate Bridgepoint Active Healthcare.
Groups will not come in contact with each other within the Power Plant, however an outdoor patio reception at the end of the event will allow those who would like to socialize the opportunity to do so.
Each group will have a Sinai Health volunteer or staff member acting as a guide, helping them move through the exhibits. Your guide will ensure you have enough time in each space to explore the activations, and shop the jewellery auction.
