History & AchievementsCommunity Arts Ontario is an arts service organization that currently represents a network of more than 180 arts agencies, institutions, and municipalities across Ontario and close to 40 individual artists and public supporters. Community Arts Ontario serves as the province's only multidisciplinary, cross-sectional arts network. We provide an effective voice for all individuals, groups and institutions that share our common vision for the arts. Together, we aim to achieve a standard of arts excellence within all regions of Ontario and beyond. As such, we offer unique programs and services to suit a broad range of arts and cultural professionals, community leaders and municipalities. Established in 1990, CAO emerged as an umbrella organization for community arts councils and for its first four years operated solely as a volunteer organization. In 1995, a contract part-time Executive Director position was created, and operated out of a home office in Ottawa. In summer 2000, CAO moved its headquarters from Ottawa to Toronto. A full-time ED and a part-time Communications Specialist were hired. |
