We’re just a week away from the official opening of the Time4Change art gallery presented by Youth Without Shelter. Now in it’s 14th year, the annual Time4Change fundraiser works alongside community partners to educate Toronto students about youth homelessness through fundraising and art activism.

Where ART Meets ACTIVISM.

Time4Change is a collaborative effort that blends the expressive and emotional influence of the arts with the tactical approach of activism, aiming to catalyze social change while raising funds for the YWS Emergency Residential Program.

This year’s gallery will be held over three weeks and hosted at Neilson Park Creative Centre between March 4 – 22, 2025. 

The gallery culminates with an artist showcase featuring live performances by dancers, musicians and spoken word artists and this year will include a performance by Neither Could Dylan who is set to drop their new EP Homeless Youth on the same date.

The showcase takes place between 2-4 PM on March 22nd and your $10 entry includes food and drinks during the perfomance.

For those unable to attend the gallery or showcase in person, an online auction launches on March 4 and doesn’t close until the end of the T4C showcase. All proceeds from the auction will be donated to YWS to help us support the youth we serve.

Tickets are now available for the 2025 edition of Time4Change here.

About Youth Without Shelter:

Youth Without Shelter – commonly known as ‘YWS’ – is a charity offering shelter and support for youth facing homelessness in the GTA. Founded in 1986, we provide client-focused services in a non-judgmental environment for youth aged 16 – 24. Together, with our experienced team of staff, we recognize the individual needs of each youth we serve, and empower them to discover their own unique path out of homelessness, and to live responsibly and independently within our society.
