Doors Open 2026

401 Richmond is a cornerstone of Toronto’s arts community, and there is no better time to explore its labyrinthine halls than during Doors Open Toronto. On May 23, the building invites the public to experience its unique blend of community, culture, and commerce firsthand.

What to Expect Whether you are a long-time fan of the building or a first-time visitor, this is a rare opportunity to wander freely through the galleries, independent shops, and open artist studios that make this historic warehouse a city treasure. The building is famous for its eclectic mix of tenants, ranging from non-profit organizations to independent publishers and visual artists.

Make a Day of It Beyond the studios, you can fuel your exploration with snacks from the licensed café on-site. If the weather is on our side, take a moment to enjoy the inner courtyard—a quiet oasis in the heart of the Fashion District—or head up to the green rooftop for a different perspective on the city skyline.

Practical Info This event is family-friendly and completely free to attend. Located at 401 Richmond St W, it is easily accessible by transit. After you have finished your tour, you are perfectly positioned to explore the nearby Queen West neighbourhood, known for its endless array of boutiques, cafes, and restaurants. It is a fantastic way to spend a Saturday celebrating the creative spirit that defines Toronto.
