Equity Mandate
At Toronto Arts Academy, it is our mission to create diverse, accepting environments where the individuality and heritages of every student within our musical community are recognized and honoured. We aspire to create heritage-rich programming that is more equitable. We wish to be a part of the global conversation on equity issues by sharing voices, perspectives and relevant resources.
