Small and medium-sized venues play a critical role in nurturing a thriving, diverse community of artists. As we feel the impact of the tightening real estate market on Toronto’s performing arts scene, I wanted to give everyone this retrospective dashboard that they can use to discover venues of the recent past, as well as the present.
This project works on the definition of "mid-size" as 3000 capacity or below, and only includes the venues that fit that definition.
