TOAF Celebrates with Canadian Galleries
In celebration of the 65th Anniversary of the Toronto Outdoor Art Fair, we have collaborated with galleries from across Canada.
The exhibition highlights the vital role of commercial galleries in supporting artists, nurturing creative practices, and providing opportunities for audiences to experience and purchase contemporary Canadian art.
TOAF’s tribute continues our focus on building a vibrant national arts community by celebrating the artist/gallery connection, which is the sinew that strengthens the wider Canadian art ecosystem.
