Ways to Support Luminato

Luminato is about celebrating the creative spirit. The Festival is committed to commissioning new work, presenting Canadian and world premieres, developing audiences, providing free public programs and celebrations, and bringing exciting programs that would otherwise not be seen in Toronto. The Festival also encourages audiences to sample across genres in a fun, lively and accessible festival atmosphere.

Our patrons and supporters are vital partners with Luminato. Each year, many generous and visionary individuals, corporations, foundations, and government agencies make significant financial investments in Luminato's artistic presentations and educational programs.

You are invited to become part a growing circle of arts lovers who enable Luminato to bring Toronto's creativity to the world, and the world's creativity to Toronto every June.
