The Corleck

Opening 2025. A new venue for arts, culture and heritage in Toronto.

More than 4.4 million Canadians trace their roots to Ireland. Beginning with the development of Ireland Park, Canada Ireland Foundation has engaged with artists, historians and community leaders to create an ever-growing series of projects that celebrate and commemorate the rich history of the Irish Diaspora in Canada. From commemorative spaces to digital exhibitions, we invite you to explore and discover the Irish experience in Canada.
