About the Regent Park Arts & Cultural Centre
Toronto Community Housing Corporation, The Daniels Corporation and Artscape are working collaboratively with the local community on the development and operation of a vibrant new arts and cultural centre in Regent Park. The Regent Park Arts & Cultural Centre will anchor culture as a primary driver in the community’s revitalization, both physically and symbolically. The integration and celebration of Regent Park’s cultural richness in the revitalization will play a central role in its success and in the creation of a socially inclusive, livable, healthy, safe and vibrant neighbourhood. The Regent Park Arts & Cultural Centre is expected to be in the range of 65,000 square feet in total. Construction is scheduled to begin in late spring 2010. The building is scheduled to open March 2011. www.regentparkarts.ca
