It's our New Year's Eve Countdown, and everyone’s invited! Join amazing artists and friendly AGO families for this live virtual event, inspired by the new exhibition Studio 54: Night Magic. 

We'll post details during the last week of the year about all the fun activities we have planned, so you, your friends and family can all get ready to count down to 2021 with the AGO. 

You can make your very own disco ball! 

Cook up a delicious NYE dessert dish! 

Dress up for our #distancedressup project. 

Learn the hustle, show off your moves in an online dance party, and end with an eye-popping digital art countdown to the New Year!

DJ Iced Misto @icedmisto will spin the tunes. Artist Diana VanderMuelen will count us down, while art curators, art instructors and more help us celebrate! Don't miss it!
