Overview
The Cabbagetown Community Arts Centre Inc. is a renowned Canadian nonprofit organization dedicated to providing arts and music education to children, particularly from lower-income backgrounds. The Centre's mission is to enrich the lives of children by offering programs that focus on building character, discipline, and skill through the arts.
History
Established in 1979 by local residents David Blackmore, Jim Heineman, and Tommy Oki, the Centre was a response to the need for challenging arts programs for children in areas like St. James Town and Regent Park. Over the past four decades, it has grown to become one of the longest-running registered charitable organizations of its kind in Toronto.

- Storytelling Sessions: Following the crafts classes, storytelling sessions are conducted on Saturdays to foster imagination and language skills.
- Performances and Exhibitions: The Centre organizes music recitals and art exhibitions, providing a platform for children to showcase their talents.
Vision and Impact
Cabbagetown Community Arts Centre aims to create a nurturing environment where children can explore their potential and feel valued. It plays a vital role in bridging social, economic, and cultural divides in highly diverse communities by organizing community events like the Cabbagetown Festival.
Registration and Status
The organization is registered with the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) as a charitable organization under the number 129452769RR0001. This status allows it to receive donations and provide tax receipts to its supporters.
