Young Centre for the Performing Arts
George Brown College and Soulpepper Theatre Company created the Young Centre for the Performing Arts with the goal of housing Toronto’s artistic community and serving as a destination for theatre enthusiasts. You can tell there is a difference as soon as you enter the Young Centre. The area is buzzing with conversation and argument. The enthusiasm of artists, students, and audiences creates dynamic energy. When designers, choreographers, directors, and musicians work together, there is a musical hum.

Mill Street Brewery
When they opened the doors to their tiny red-brick brewery in Toronto’s famed Distillery District in the winter of 2002, their tale officially began. Original Organic Lager, the first organic beer ever brewed in Canada, was created with an eco-friendly mindset. Soon after, they made an impression on intrepid craft consumers with Tankhouse Ale, a historically avant-garde brew. When they reached their modest brewhouse’s capacity in 2006, they decided to expand the brewery and turn the existing brewery building into a brewpub. In an old, historic gristmill on the banks of the Ottawa River, they launched a second brewpub in 2012.
