Lassonde Art Trail Foundation

The Lassonde Art Trail Foundation develops and maintains public art installations and trails throughout Toronto and the Greater Toronto Area, creating accessible outdoor spaces where residents and visitors encounter contemporary art in their neighborhoods. The foundation works with local artists, communities, and municipal partners to design walking routes that integrate visual art, sculpture, and creative installations into urban and natural landscapes. By connecting art to public spaces, the organization makes cultural experiences free and available to people of all backgrounds, turning streets, parks, and waterfront areas into open-air galleries. The foundation also supports emerging artists through commission opportunities and engages communities in the creative process through workshops and public programs tied to the art trails.
