OUR COMMUNITY

From 1983 to 1990 numerous artists exhibited at the Embassy Cultural House (ECH). These visual art exhibits were just an element of the programming held over the years including music concerts, film nights, performances, lectures, and social events. There was also an irregular tabloid newspaper that promoted and reviewed the programming at the Cultural House.

This dynamic community created wonderful energy and a cutural buzz in East London. As we re-envision the ECH a new generation of artists with a connection to London are coming together to celebrate London's both the past and looking to the future. Please visit our community to see some of London's rich and diverse arts culture. We will be adding new pages every week as we build out the site so please come back often to see new additions.

ECH family & community mourn the loss of Tyson Haller

The Embassy Cultural House (ECH) community is grieving the loss of Tyson Haller who passed away in Ottawa on March 16, 2021. He was a strong supporter of the ECH both during its original program at the Embassy Hotel between 1983 - 1990 and its present online format.

Tyson's parents Helen and Egon owned the Embassy Hotel from the late 1970s until it was sold in 2001. He was a huge part in running the hotel and organizing the music program in the hotel bars. Tyson went on to study film at Ryerson University. Our heart goes out to all his friends and family in London and around the world who are mourning his passing.
