For those volunteers interested, the Gallery has announced Extended Hours Until 9 pm (for Picasso Only)

Also posting here, a reminder on the Procedure for Booking Volunteer Tickets. With less staff on site, and new contracting staff often taking shifts over the Holiday Break, please be patient with booking – this procedure will not be familiar for new folks. Just make sure when you book a ticket that you clearly share you are a volunteer looking to book a volunteer ticket(s). Thank you for your patience and support:

VOLUNTEERS are invited to book any of the following:

2 Special exhibition tickets for Picasso: Painting the Blue Period (There is a maximum of 2 exhibition tickets per volunteer) – one of these tickets will be for you, another for your guest. Picasso tickets include general gallery admission, which includes access to Matthew Wong, and Fragments of Epic Memory.

Not planning to see Picasso? A friendly reminder, you can also book up to 4 General Admission tickets in one visit. One of these tickets will be for you; and 3 for your guests.

For either option – you do not need to provide the name or contact details of your guests. The booking will be made under your name.

For both options, please:

Call the Contact Centre on 416-979-6608 or email [email protected] and make sure to:

  • Specify if you are booking ticket(s) for Picasso (which includes General Gallery Admission), or General Admission only
  • Please include the Date and time you would like to attend, and provide the name and email address for where to email the tickets. (This can be a name other than yours)
  • The tickets will be sent out as PDFs that can be shown on a smartphone or printed in advance of your visit.
  • Please provide 5 business days’ notice in advance of your visit so we can email you your tickets.

For any Volunteers who have a membership or Annual Pass, we encourage you to continue to use your membership to book your tickets, online, in advance of visiting.

Remember: all visitors/volunteers/staff must show proof of vaccination. For more details, please see all of the guidelines posted on the AGO website: https://ago.ca/visitor-information/visitor-guidelines
