World Community Arts Day is a grassroots festival that originated five years ago in England and is spreading across the world. This year, the Neighbourhood Arts Network celebrated with ‘A Love Letter to Community Arts’.
In recognizing World Community Arts Day, the Neighbourhood Arts Network is celebrating the contributions that Toronto artists make – to our local and global communities.

For those who are working in Toronto, it is always good to take a step back and remember that we are part of something bigger – whether it’s a Toronto-wide network, or a worldwide community.
