 Dear Friends, Welcome to a new season of powerful and inspiring cultural experiences with the Koffler Centre of the Arts! This Fall/Winter, you will find us exploring Toronto in new ways through our exhibitions and programs. The GTA is defined by its neighborhoods, and you will find us in yours - whether you live downtown, midtown, uptown, or in Vaughan. We invite you to make art with us with some of Canada's most exciting artists in one of our beautiful new studios at the Lebovic Campus, on Sherman Campus, or at The Leo Baeck Day School's new Arlington campus. The Koffler's new bi-annual magazine, The Mix, is hot off the presses. It includes the full range of our Fall/Winter exhibitions, multidisciplinary programs and classes in visual art, music, dance and ceramics. Watch your mailbox - or download a PDF version today!
From all of us at the Koffler Centre of the Arts, we wish you and your loved ones a sweet and inspiring New Year. Lori Starr
Executive Director
