In 1933, the AGT received a grant from the Carnegie Foundation for ten thousand dollars for educational work. This allowed for the foundation of the “Children’s Art Centre” at No. 4 Grange Rd., which lasted from 1933 to 1947. In 1947, programs were discontinued, except for those for members’ children. In 1963, classes for gifted adolescents were organized, and in 1967, classes for children and adolescents were held at the OCA (now known as OCAD). In 1977, a grant from the Outreach Ontario program from the Ministry of Culture and Recreation also led to the establishment of a summer scholarship course for teenagers.
