The ArtReach Toolkits Microsite!

“ArtReach Toronto is proud to announce the official launch of the Toolkits Microsite!

The brand new microsite — which you can visit at www.artreachtoronto.ca/toolkits — contains tons of resources, films and kits developed as part of the Grassroots Organizing and Leadership (GOAL) Youth Capacity Building Workshop Series that has been going strong since 2007.  The workshops create a space for facilitators (many of whom are young people, or those that have been involved in grassroots organizing and project development) to share their insights and resources with youth groups, organizers and artists.  At the new Toolkit site you will find info on a range of topics, from grant-writing to event planning, fundraising and financial management!

The workshop series is implemented by ArtReach Toronto in partnership with the Grassroots Youth Collaborative, Laidlaw Foundation, City of Toronto, Schools Without Borders, For Youth Initiative and Toronto Community Foundation.

Special thanks go to the facilitators for sharing their knowledge and expertise, as well as the following partners that have provided funding for the workshops, resource guides and online toolkits:

Canadian Heritage
City of Toronto Cultural Services
Laidlaw Foundation
The Lawson Foundation
Toronto Fund at the Toronto Community Foundation

Please share this announcement with youth organizers and artists as well as your networks, friends, and fellow community members!  And enjoy.

Thanks for helping ArtReach Toronto spread the word!”
