Gallery Re-Opening February 1

Posted by on .

Good news is on the way! After a prolonged, full closure, the Gallery is looking forward to opening (at 50% capacity) on Tuesday February 1. Like visitors, volunteers can book tickets to see Fragments of Epic Memory (closing February 21) and more!

Visiting Guidelines: A gentle reminder that Walk-up tickets are not available. All tickets must be booked online in advance. 
Proof of vaccination required. Please bring both enhanced vaccine certificate with QR code and a government-issued ID that matches the proof of vaccination documentation with your date of birth when you visit.

Here’s how to book volunteer tickets:

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:

  • Please include the Date and time you would like to attend
  • 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.

Some important things to keep in mind:

  • You can bring your volunteer badge for discounts in shopAGO or AGO Bistro, but it is not needed for entry into the Gallery. You will not be asked to show your badge along with your ticket, and badges can’t be used to gain entry into the building.
  • You will need to use the main entrance to visit, not Jackman Hall, which is closed. The volunteer lounge also remains closed.
  • When visiting, please remain in the public areas of the Gallery. The Volunteer Lounge and other back of house areas are restricted at this time for the safety of those who are required to work on-site.

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.

The Contact Centre is busy! We are grateful for your assistance in booking in advance.

We are looking forward to seeing you!
