60 WORKS/60 YEARS - TORONTO OUTDOOR ART FAIR AT 60

The City of Toronto began collecting art for display in civic buildings in the 1850s. Since then, The City of Toronto Art Collection has grown to include over 3000 works of art including paintings, watercolours, prints and sculptures. A large majority of these are on permanent display at City Hall, Metro Hall and other civic buildings across the city. 

The Mayor's Purchase Award at the annual Toronto Outdoor Art Fair is an important moment for the collection. Each year the Mayor, assisted by City curators, selects a work to be brought into the municipal collection from the fair. This is an excellent opportunity to purchase works from new and emerging artists and enrich the collection with diverse perspectives. Past winners include George Boyer, Clint Griffin, Jesse Boles, Dionne Simpson, Ruby Zhang and Raoul Olou. The exhibition will also feature works by the 2021 recipient of the Mayor's Purchase Award, Vanessa Dion Fletcher.
