Koffler Centre of the Arts Statement

October 13, 2023

The Koffler Centre of the Arts condemns the terrorist atrocities carried out in Israel by Hamas. We mourn the murder of women and men, youth, infants and the elderly and we pray for the safe return of all the hostages. We are deeply saddened by the loss of all innocent lives in the region.

We join Toronto’s cultural institutions in denouncing anti-Semitism, discrimination, and hatred in all forms. We remain unwavering in our commitment to present contemporary art, Jewish culture and intercultural dialogue as a pathway of hope and healing.
