Unique Opportunity -Operate Toronto’s newest Arts and Cultural Centre
The Regent Park Neighbourhood is being revitalized through a 12-15 year multiphased process that involves creating a mixed-use, mixed-income community of approximately 5,500 units of new condominium and rental housing, along with a blend of retail and community facilities.
Many community-building opportunities are being leveraged through the Revitalization initiative and the development of an Arts and Cultural Centre has been a major objective since the inception of the revitalization plan. Now, Toronto Community Housing and its development partner, The Daniels
Corporation, are pursuing the creation of a purpose-built 50,000 square foot Arts and Cultural Centre that will serve Regent Park and the broader Toronto community.
The Centre will be a showcase for artistic talent, an incubator of creative people and organizations, a workshop for new artistic creations, and the social heart of the Regent Park neighbourhood with particular focus on supporting local and grass-roots arts groups operating in Regent Park.
Toronto Community Housing and The Daniels Corporation are looking for an innovative, engaged Facility Operator to be part of this opportunity.

We thank you for your interest and urge you to forward this information to groups and individuals who might be interested in this unique and exciting opportunity.
