Our story…
Jamii (Swahili for “community”) is an arts organization with the intent of enhancing togetherness with the communities we engage.
We initiate, welcome, enable, facilitate and produce creative experiences with, for and by the people of The Esplanade and beyond to create shared memories and to contribute to a healthier community. Since 2011, Jamii has produced over 250+ events, engaged more than 1500 people in creative processes, worked with over 300 artists, and reached 30,000+ audience members and 40,000+ exhibit viewers. Jamii receives the support of Canada Council for the Arts, Ontario Arts Council, Toronto Arts Council and Canadian Heritage.
By supporting Jamii and our runners, you can directly impact our free arts programs such as LAINI, Belonging, Indoor Workshops & Activities, and Outdoor Events. Every dollar raised will enable our capacity to continue our community work and engage in programming for Esplanadians of all ages, abilities, and income levels.
