Remote Gallery is Akin’s dedicated exhibition and programming space located at 568 Richmond Street West. Remote Gallery provides opportunities for artists and members of the public to rent financially-accessible space for various types of programming. Our multi-use space is available for workshops, presentations, meetings, and community events as well as exhibitions, performances and other artistic programs.
To inquire about Remote Gallery rental please email gallery@akincollective.com to discuss availability and pricing. Please include a brief description of your exhibition or programming idea, the dates you are looking at, and any other pertinent information in your inquiry. We aim to make our space rentals as financially accessible as possible and look forward to hearing your ideas! Akin will be prioritizing Toronto’s newcomer artists, the Toronto Arts Council Equity Priority Groups and Akin’s current members for rentals of the space, but everyone is welcome to inquire!
A huge thank you to the Toronto Arts Council for their collaboration on this space, without whom this would not have been possible. Special thanks also to our friends and collaborators Neighbourhood Arts Network and Toronto Employment and Social Services’ Art Connections program.
