Singing the season
A Winter’s Night is a magical gathering of voices, a celebration of song to welcome the holiday season. Under the direction of Cool Choir’s Jamie Serafi, guests will sing their hearts out to a collection of beloved holiday tunes — no singing experience needed, just a voice and some festive cheer. A Winter’s Night supports Luna Child & Youth Advocacy Centre, helping provide critical programs and compassionate support for children, youth, and families impacted by abuse.

Clear Space
It’s important to keep a certain amount of “clear space” around your logo when placing it on brand materials, advertising, or any visual graphics.
Clear space helps present the logo and maintain good visibility when placed with other logos, marks, or graphics. The height of the letter W is the benchmark for spacing (it’s marked with an “x”). The space around the logo should be this size at a minimum.

How to style type
Typography plays a large role in establishing visual language. It helps set the tone of communication and aids in providing clarity, style, and character.
For a consistent style, follow these styling suggestions.
Main headings or large display text should be set in Amandine Medium and be larger or most prominent compared to accompanying text. Line height or leading should be approx. 112-130% depending on size (larger percentage, as the heading size gets smaller).
Body copy or paragraphs should be set in Ofelia Text Regular. It should have approx. 180% line height (leading) for easy reading.
Intro Heading
Headings are the most important message and help provide structure and clarity.
This is an example paragraph. This styling should be used for main bodies of text, paragraphs, or longer format content.
