As the largest outdoor art exhibition in Canada, the TOAE offers a fresh-air alternative to conventional art shows and galleries. Approximately 100,000 visitors attend the exhibition every year. Side by side, hundreds of established artists, undiscovered talents and innovative students sell their work directly to the public and make lasting connections with art dealers and collectors. We welcome applications from artists working in a wide range of traditional and experimental art forms.

The TOAE gratefully acknowledges the support of the many sponsors and award donors that made the 2010 exhibition a success.

Now in its 49th year, the Toronto Outdoor Art Exhibition [TOAE] is a juried showcase featuring contemporary fine art and craft that takes place on Nathan Phillips Square every July.

TOAE is recognized as a festival and event of distinction by the Top 100 Festivals and Events in Ontario.
