The Royal Conservatory TELUS Centre for Performance and Learning has generated synergies with a range of arts organizations in Toronto, including the Toronto International Film Festival and is a preferred venue for private and corporate functions. The entrance off Philosopher’s Walk has increased pedestrian activity and by extension the level of safety in this treasured historic public park. The café in the ground level atrium is a highly frequented destination for students and parents, as well as the general public. Koerner Hall is celebrated as a perfect integration of architecture and engineering – and lauded by world class performers including Yo-Yo Ma for the seamless fusion of superb acoustics, warmth of atmosphere. and beauty.
