One of the oldest art colleges in Canada, this school, located next to the Art Gallery of Ontario, started up in 1876 to provide students with a place where they could concentrate specifically on arts studies. Today the college is the largest in the country, offering arts and design programs and modern disciplines such as integrated media and advertising, as well as access to the latest computer graphics technologies. Once a year, the public can view the students' works at an exhibition on the main campus the first weekend in May. Admission is free.
