Toronto Arts Foundation: Arts in the Parks Community Information Session

Toronto Arts Foundation invites you to learn more about Arts in the Parks at our Community Information Session.

Arts in the Parks is a free annual outdoor initiative that will bring arts events to parks across Toronto, with underserved areas being a priority. Launching in the spring of 2016, Arts in the Parks will encourage community building, enjoyment of local parks, and offer arts events for residents and tourists of all ages. Events will include performances, dance, music, theatre, film, community-engaged work and temporary installations by arts groups. Selected parks are located throughout Toronto, from Etobicoke to Scarborough and North York to the downtown core.

Arts in the Parks is a new initiative of the Toronto Arts Foundation and the Toronto Arts Council, being presented in partnership with City of Toronto Parks, Forestry & Recreation, Arts & Culture Services, and Park People.
