Wychwood Barns
Once a streetcar facility, Wychwood Barns has been reimagined into a vibrant center for the arts, community, and environmental initiatives in the heart of midtown Toronto. Today, it stands as a favored venue for a myriad of events, thanks to its impressive high ceilings, abundant daylight, and unique architectural elements.
This multifaceted space not only hosts a myriad of artist studios and not-for-profit organizations but also features a community gallery and a bustling farmers’ market, enriching Toronto’s Wychwood neighborhood with a dynamic cultural and communal hub.
The centerpiece of Wychwood Barns, the Covered Street Barn, boasts a distinctive full-length skylight, glass garage doors, and preserved original brickwork, offering an unparalleled setting for events ranging from markets and galas to weddings and conferences.
Alongside, the Christie Open Air Courtyard extends the venue’s appeal with an indoor-outdoor ambiance ideal for exclusive gatherings or special occasion celebrations. Managed by ArtHubs under the ownership of the City of Toronto, the Barns have evolved from their industrial origins in the early 20th century into a cherished heritage site, following a transformative redevelopment completed in 2008. With its commitment to fostering artistic and environmental projects, Wychwood Barns serves as a testament to community revitalization and cultural innovation.
