About the Surrounding Area
The Art Gallery of Ontario’s location in the Grange Park Neighborhood, which derives its name from Grange Public Park which houses The Grange (the oldest standing brick house in Toronto). The Grange was built in 1817 and it was the original home of the Art Gallery of Ontario. Currently it serves as one of the wings of the AGO. Grange Park is mostly a residential area now, although Baldwin Village within Grange Park is a commercial enclave with boutiques, restaurants, and shops. The neighborhood is accessible both by streetcar and by subway. Although its history included a large Jewish immigrant population, today it is largely part of the Chinatown portion of downtown Toronto. If you’re visiting Grange Park with children during the summer, you’ll want to visit the wading pool. The Village on the Grange shopping area was voted to have the best food court in all of Toronto.

About the Art Gallery of Ontario
When it first opened in 1900, the AGO was known as the Art Museum of Toronto. In 1919 it was renamed the Art Gallery of Toronto and it kept that title until 1966, when it acquired its current name. The AGO is located off of Dundas Street West, between McCaul and Beverley Streets, in the heart of west downtown Toronto. The Art Gallery of Ontario is one of the largest in North America and its collection boasts nearly 100,000 pieces of artwork that represent the first century through to the present day. It also hosts the Thomson collection, donated by Ken Thomson, which added roughly 2000 pieces of artwork to the museum’s collection. The highlight of the Thomson collection is Peter Paul Rubens’ The Massacre of the Innocents, painted in the 17th century. If you’re at the AGO for research purposes, you’ll want to check out the E.P. Taylor Library & Archives, which includes over 300,000 volumes. Its hours are more limited than the general Art Gallery of Ontario. The AGO recently announced two upcoming exhibits that are of particular note— Haegue Yang’s exhibition, Haegue Yang: Emergence (spring 2020) and Andy Warhol (spring 2021). All visitors aged 25 and under can enter the art gallery free of charge and a yearly pass only costs $35. A day pass is $25 for those over the age of 25.
