Our goal is to create more equitable ways of connecting art, ideas and communities.

Location and services

Here is some information about the gallery, the building in which it is located and the services we offer:

CUAG is located in the St. Patrick’s Building, at the north end of campus. Here is a guide to accessibility in the St. Patrick’s Building.

Due to construction on Campus Ave, the closest bus stops are on University Ave (see the Visiting page). The closest Para Transpo stop is 18 in front of Lanark House on Library Road.

CUAG is a barrier-free space, on two levels. An elevator in the building lobby enables you to access both floors. There are automatic entrance doors on both levels. Service animals are welcome. 

Two washrooms are located in the building lobby, on the tunnel level: an all-persons washroom and a women’s washroom. These washrooms have automated doors and are useable, if not fully accessible. There is a useable men’s washroom on the third floor; it does not have an automated door. 

While you are visiting the gallery, magnifying glasses, lightweight seats and a wheelchair are available for you to borrow. Please ask one of our friendly front desk ambassadors for assistance.

Live captioning is available for our virtual events.

We are working to add alt-text descriptions to the photos on this website, so that it will meet WCAG (web content accessibility guidelines) 2.0 Level AA standards, as per the AODA (Accessibility for Ontarians with Disabilities Act).
