The Corkin Gallery is a contemporary art gallery that participates in several significant art fairs and events around the globe on behalf of Toronto. Inspite of this, the gallery is a bit of a hidden gem, and features beautiful paintings and photography exhibits from local as well as foreign artists. The gallery has transformed an old tank house into a hotbed of creative expression, while still retaining the industrial interiors of its premises. Artists such as Nicola Katsuras, Barbara Astman, Sharon Switzer, Ramón Serrano and Lori Newdick have displayed their works here.

Einer der originellsten Treffpunkte für Live- Musik in der Stadt und der Ort, an dem die singende kanadische Legende Stompin' Tom seine erste Chance hatte. Diese Taverne ist immer noch der Ort, an dem man die Bands erlebt, die das Wort "Road" ins Roadhouse gebracht haben. Wie jeder überdauernde Klub hat sich auch der Horseshoe mit der Zeit verändert.
Von Cowboy bis Punk, von Rock'n'Roll bis Grunge, der 225 Besucher fassende Live-Musik- Klub hat alles schon gehört. Das Tonsystem hat eine hohe Dezibelzahl, und Dienstag abends ist die lokale Radiostation 102.1 The Edge Gastgeber für eine New Music-Serie von Musik von der Straße.
