Art Toronto Virtual Preview
A Benefit for the AGO
This Fall, for the 21st year, the AGO is partnering with Art Toronto, Canada’s Leading Art Fair. Rather than taking place at the Metro Toronto Convention Centre, this renowned fair is developing a new direction with the whole program online, supported by in-gallery events in exhibition spaces across the country.
The first day of the fair, October 28 will be a special preview event, in support of the AGO.
Art Toronto Virtual Preview offers guests exclusive access to view and purchase works at the fair before it opens to the public. In addition, guests will be treated to exclusive content and a few surprises throughout the day.
The funds raised strengthen our collections and exhibitions, grow audiences through engaging public programs, and increase access to welcome more curious minds at the AGO.
Art Toronto Virtual Preview tickets: $30.00
