Hosted top national, international and award-winning artists such as:

‘‘Trane Studio represents a timely and important contribution to the cultural landscape of the Regent Park neighbourhood. Embracing music, theatre, spoken word, visual arts and film, I envision the Trane Studio as serving as a dynamic community hub where mentorship, education, and fellowship will be fostered, collectively building a better future society for all. Named in honour of… John Coltrane, the new Trane Studio will build on the legacy of the original The Trane Studio that was such an integral part of Toronto’s creative community from 2003-2012, presenting both local and international artists of the highest calibre.’’
