We bring people together with art to see, experience and understand the world in new ways by presenting great ART, facilitating LEARNING, and engaging with our AUDIENCE.
We lead global conversations from Toronto through extraordinary collections, exhibitions, and programs—and by reflecting the people who live here.
The Art Gallery of Ontario (AGO) is one of the largest and most distinguished art museums in North America, located in the heart of Toronto.

The gallery is a vibrant space where creativity and community intersect, welcoming people of all backgrounds to explore art in meaningful ways.
Rooted in Toronto yet globally engaged, the AGO seeks to reflect the diversity of the city it serves. It fosters dialogue and inclusion through innovative programming and strategic partnerships, aiming to lead conversations in the art world while remaining accessible to its local community. Whether through bold exhibitions or educational outreach, the AGO continues to push boundaries and elevate the role of art in society.
