The Curatorial Encounters program series invites all members of the arts community and the general public to meet and converse with our 2024 exhibition curators, Dominique Fontaine and Miguel A. López.

For the first three Curatorial Encounters, Dominique and Miguel – in dialogue with artists, collaborators, and other TBA staff – hosted iterative conversations focused on the curatorial process and building of the 2024 Biennial.

For the final Curatorial Encounter, we celebrate the opening of the Biennial with a two-part public tour highlighting the impact that the Biennial artists have on Toronto, spanning from The Auto BLDG at 158 Sterling Ave in the West to the Toronto Sculpture Garden in the East.
