Nuit Blanche 2022 sponsors, partners and volunteers

Nuit Blanche is set to transform Toronto on Saturday, October 1, filling the streets with art by more than 150 local, national and international artists. While the lineup of art projects, artists and curators is the focus of Nuit Blanche each year, the event’s network of funders, partners, volunteers and collaborators makes the event possible.

 

The City of Toronto thanks the Government of Ontario for providing funding and exhibition sponsors Humber College and Scarborough Town Centre for their support. Toronto’s biggest celebration of contemporary art is also made possible as a result of tremendous support from many other sponsors and partners including: CF Toronto Eaton Centre, Concord Adex, Waterfront BIA, Oxford Properties Group, Deloitte, Toronto Regional Real Estate Board, University of Toronto Scarborough and the Doris McCarthy Gallery, Johnnie Walker, Coca-Cola and Beyond Meat.
