Inspire curiosity and creativity


At TVO, everything we do is about encouraging learning that changes lives and enriches communities. One of the ways we do that is through Art Education and more specifically TVO Arts, which decodes and demystifies iconic works of Canadian art.

We know that engaging with art is essential to the human experience. The arts challenge us with different points of view, compel us to empathize with those different than ourselves, and give us the opportunity to reflect on the human condition.


Our goal is to inspire a new generation of art lovers by sharing the transformative experience of encountering iconic works of art. By learning about and participating in arts education, individuals develop a range of competencies and skills—not just in creativity, but also in citizenship, social-emotional learning, and academic achievement.

By supporting TVO, you are ensuring that all generations of Ontarians have access to content that inspires curiosity and creativity, while cultivating a lifelong passion for learning.
