★ What is the Jane-Finch Hub? ★

The vision for the Jane-Finch Community Hub and Centre for the Arts (CHCA) is a multi-purpose, community-driven, and community-operated facility that responds to existing local needs and supports creative, social, recreational, and entrepreneurial programs for residents of Jane-Finch and beyond.

The CHCA is a product of the rich history of civic engagement and advocacy by the Jane-Finch community, dating back to 2015.

The Community Hub will be located along Finch (at 2050 Finch Avenue West) in front of the Finch LRT Maintenance and Storage Facility.
