A couple of weeks ago, in honour of International Women’s Day, we wrote about four amazing women in the Canadian art world. We thought that it was only fitting to pay a similar tribute to some of the top-notch gentleman that we have in the arts as well! Here are four young men already making their mark on the arts scene. Take note of their names as they are guys to watch.

In honour of International Women’s Day, we wanted to highlight a few females in the Canadian art world who you should keep your eye on.

Below are just a few young women whose names you should know as they have made, and continue to make, a strong impact in their field.
