In this six-week program, Blank Canvas will equip youth with necessary skills to help navigate creative industries, build community and themselves to find their unique voice. The program aims to introduce youth to movers and shakers in Toronto's creative scene where budding artists can find new inspiration, mentors and collaboration while being exposed to new methods of artistic expression and practices.

To conclude the program, join us in a networking event for young creative focusing on connecting and engaging with artists, cultural producers and influencers for an evening of art, inspiration, collaboration.

Blank Canvas is an art collective that continues to build a vibrant art community that drives culture forward and creates platforms for marginalized artists through events, panels, workshops and content creation. Blank Canvas seeks to re-imagine spaces that allow emerging artists to explore their intersectional identities, where the ability to share narratives and raise awareness of culturally critical issues facing our communities is fostered. Using varying forms of artistic and cultural expression, Blank Canvas focuses on what’s best for our community – spreading positive energy, showcasing new artists, taking up space unapologetically and being a cultural conduit for creatives.
