ABOUT THE AURORA TOWN SQUARE PROJECT

With two community spaces and unlimited possibilities, Aurora Town Square is a place where young and old can come together in all seasons to enjoy art, theatre, music, shopping, community events and activities.

Aurora Town Square includes two key spaces – a vibrant outdoor square and a new community facility that will feature a flexible performance hall with seating for up to 250 people and a variety of multi-purpose programming spaces that will bring life and energy to our downtown core.

Aurora Town Square is a key part of Aurora's exciting downtown revitalization plan.

    Eight artists will be selected to create a series of temporary, large-scale public art installations with an augmented reality (AR) twist for Town Square’s grand opening.

    Selected artists will collaborate with the Toronto-based public art collective, Oddside Arts, during the design process.
    *Deadline to apply: December 17, 2023
