Neilson Park Creative Centre
Toronto, Canada
Neilson Park Creative Centre (NPCC) is a charitable organization that serves the diverse landscape of Toronto through partnerships, outreach initiatives and community engagement.
As an arts hub in Western Toronto, NPCC serves the community by offering arts based classes, workshop, drop-ins, open studios, events and exhibitions within and outside its facilities.
We welcome all individuals to the Centre through free and paid programming and deliver free arts-based learning as outreach programs outside the Centre. NPCC provides gallery space as rentals in its fully accessible facilities of 4 studios, 5 gallery spaces, administrative offices and support spaces.
Established in 1992, the Centre is home to six Resident Groups: Calligraphic Arts Guild of Toronto, Etobicoke Handweavers and Spinners, Etobicoke Art Group, Etobicoke Quilters Guild, Etobicoke Rugcrafters and Humber Valley Art Club.
We are proud to serve all demographics through our art exhibitions – we offer an average of 17 exhibitions per year per gallery, rotating on a 3-week exhibition schedule.
Our internal programming primarily targets adult populations through the guilds we serve; and family and youth programming through the classes and workshops we offer. Externally, we serve a wide range of populations including youth, families and adults.
