• Congratulations to Alar Kongats for winning the Award of Merit by Canadian Architect Magazine in its annual Award of Excellence program! A total of 14 awards were given to architectural firms and students from across Canada for design proposals that represent innovation and overall design excellence, as well as social and environmental sustainability.
“We are very honoured to have been chosen to receive this award,” Alar Kongats said. “The design of the new centre represents the hard work and vision of the entire Estonian community, and we couldn’t be more pleased to have it recognized in this manner.”

• The International Estonian Centre: Connecting Estonians at Home and Abroad is a lovely three-minute film by Carousel Productions about how Toronto Estonians look forward to their new community home. Watch it here.
• The Welcome Centre at the Estonian House Broadview entrance is open. The Estonian Centre Project merrily opened the doors of its Welcome Centre during the annual Rahvajõulupuu Christmas celebration on Saturday, December 8. The Welcome Centre, located in the former E-Store at the Broadview entrance of the Estonian House, is a hub of information on the project. A slide show, architectural renderings of the proposed design and other information are available for community members and visitors. Stop by the Welcome Centre – it will be open during Estonian House office hours.
