Join us on the last Wednesday of each month for drop-in gallery tours for people living with mental illness. The tours, facilitated by gallery staff, are approximately 90 minutes long, and visitors are welcome to break off from the group at any point to explore the gallery on their own. The group will meet in the Education Commons of the Weston Family Learning Centre at 6:20pm and the tour will start promptly at 6:30pm - look for the New Perspectives sign. There is no registration required - if you identify as someone whose life has been touched by mental illness, please join us!

If you have questions about the New Perspectives Tours, or any of the gallery's access programs for people living with mental illness,  please contact Gillian_McIntyre@ago.net.

Community Access for people living with schizophrenia and other forms of mental illness generously supported by The W. Garfield Weston Foundation.
