The Creative Opportunity to Support the Arts in Toronto
A great city demands great art, and by supporting, celebrating, financing and advocating for Toronto’s local artists, we’re improving the quality of life of all Torontonians.
In October 2006, the Toronto Arts Council Foundation hosted, in collaboration with Canada Council for the Arts and Department of Canadian Heritage and Usana Canada, The Creative City: Block by Block – Creators and Communities, an artist-led symposium for imagining neighbourhood change. Close to two hundred community arts practitioners, community agencies, funders, academics and researchers gathered to discuss the ways in which community arts adds radiance and energy to community settings.
