Opened in 1999, Gibraltar Point is located on the Toronto Islands, surrounded by 46 acres of parkland and adjacent to a beach on Lake Ontario. Its tranquil setting offers artists and creatives an ideal place to focus on their practice and projects, and makes for a unique event space for meetings, retreats, outdoor festivals, workshops and more.

More than 700 artists a year from across the globe experiment and create art through self-directed artist retreats and thematic residencies hosted in our overnight accommodations. In addition to hosting a maximum of 20 visiting artists at any given time, fifteen long-term artist work studios provide space for a range of painters, sculptors, musicians, filmmakers and a recording studio – all of whom contribute to the unique and collaborative atmosphere at Gibraltar Point.

Your gift will enable reduced residency fees for artists facing barriers, and it will also support urgently needed repairs to the building. 

Thank you for supporting creativity at Gibraltar Point.
