Black Owned Toronto Marketplace

Saturday, December 9, 11 am - 5 pm
Weston Family Learning Centre, Art Gallery of Ontario

To accent the exhibition, Life Between Islands, the AGO has partnered with Black Owned Toronto to host a holiday marketplace. The market will feature 25 Black owned local businesses, with a range of products including candles, hair care, children’s books, skin care and more. In this exciting partnership, Kerin John, founder and CEO of Black Owned Toronto says she aims to create “a bright, punchy gathering spot for Black entrepreneurs”. This unique marketplace at the AGO will do just that and is open to all. 

For requests for Verbal Description, American Sign Language (ASL) interpretation and/or live captioning for online and onsite programming, please provide three weeks notice in advance of the event date. The AGO will make every effort to provide accommodation for requests made with less than three weeks notice. Please note that automated captioning is available for all online programs. For onsite visits, the AGO offers these supports for an accessible visit. Please contact us to make a request for these or other accessibility accommodations. Learn more about accessibility at the AGO.
