Announcing the OCAD U Career Launcher Showcase at the 60th Annual Toronto Outdoor Art Fair

TOAF 2021

This year, the Toronto Outdoor Art Fair (TOAF), Canada’s largest and longest-running contemporary outdoor art fair turns 60! TOAF has always reserved a portion of the Fair to emerging and student artists, and this year, we’re excited to share that ten talented OCAD U students/grads will be exhibiting their work in an online curated showcase from July 2-11. 

Congratulations to all the recipients of the OCAD U Toronto Outdoor Art Fair (TOAF) Career Launcher! 

As of yesterday, the public will be able to get to know the juried artists, browse thousands of artworks, start planning their art purchases, and get a sneak peek of all the exciting programming celebrating TOAF60.
