CREATIVE SPACES PARTNERSHIP EXCHANGE
NOVEMBER 2, 2015 | 1:30 – 5:00pm | TORONTO CENTRE FOR THE ARTS
Lakeshore Arts is very happy to announce that we will be participating in Artscape’s 2015 Creative Spaces Partnership Exchange on November 2, 2015!
The Creative Spaces Partnership Exchange is a FREE one-day event dedicated to networking and discussing expanding the City of Toronto’s creative map. The event is part of the Creative Spaces Outside the Core (CSOC) initiative, established in 2013 and led by Artscape. CSOC is a capacity-building and partnership development initiative designed to support the planning and development of community cultural hubs and other forms of arts infrastructure in areas outside of Toronto’s core.
CSOC is composed of local art service organizations, community service agencies, affordable housing providers, funding agencies, and the City of Toronto. Through ongoing coordination, support and leadership, the group of partners will continue to advance cultural space development projects outside the core. This year’s event will feature over 60 exhibitors!
Together, the Creative Spaces outside the Core partners advocate for investment in cultural infrastructure in underserved neighbourhoods across the GTA. The Partnership Exchange is just one of the activities the partnership has pursued to date to facilitate partnerships, identify opportunities for new developments and build creative placemaking knowledge and capacity within local networks.
