Saving Soles Soiree: The Dayton Boot Factory Fundraiser

Join us at the Rio Theatre for The Saving Soles Soirée: The Dayton Boot Factory Fundraiser to benefit and help support the rebuilding of the Dayton Boot Factory and its East Van Artist community after the recent, devastating fire that knocked them down on April 23, 2025.

This isn’t just about rebuilding a building—it’s about reviving a community. The Dayton Boot Factory has been a proud piece of Canadian history since 1946, and with your help, we’ll keep it a thriving home for East Van’s artists, makers, and musicians. Thank you for standing with us to raise this landmark from the ashes. We can’t wait to see you at the event—let’s make it a night to celebrate our resilience!
