Second or third time of visiting this stunning art gallery. Amazing building full of the old and the new and many surprises. Great for spending a few hours away from the hustle and bustle of city life. Brilliant.

For the Rubens fans it is an unforgettable experience! There is also wonderful french impressionist paintings ( Renoir, Monet, Gaughin, Cezanne).
The nice gentleman, security maybe?, just past the ticketing booths, advised us to start at the top and work our way down which proved to be excellent advice. It took just over 3 hours to get through all of it but it was a great visit.
The shows are always of interest, and it's also great to just view the old exhibits that away seem to get overlooked. Great for a day of meditation, and great to take out of town friends for a visit. Always enjoyable part of Toronto.
There's always something to stimulate the senses or tease the eye at the AGO. The architecture is stunning and worth a visit on its own - being close to OCADU doesn't hurt the contrasts! I love the special exhibitions the AGO puts on and look forward to the Ai Weiwei exhibition this summer.
We were in the area and decided to visit the gallery. Its a beautiful place. Exhibitions are thrilling. Could soenf hours and hours in this gallery. Mostly recommended.
A fun spot to get out of the cold and see a fine variety of art. Take a moment to go to the coffee counter to relax and overlook the neighborhood through the expansive windows. Give yourself enough time to make it trough
Fantastic architecture, great exibits. The coffee area is amazing. The Canadian art is very interesting.
If you like to stroll and observe, plan to go two or three times. There is lots to see, and the exhibits change quite often. Even the building itself is an amazing thing to explore, let alone the galleries. If you live in Toronto, it is worthwhile to become a member!
I would personally suggest planning on which exhibits to...

This is really an once in a life time exhibition. There are works that you will not see anywhere else as they are in private collections. In addition to the excellence and beauty of the work, the installation is first rate, and music enhancing it makes it quite magical and transports one back to the 13 century.
