Finally, in the late 70s, the city acquired the building and it became the Cecil Community Centre. To this day they continue to serve the community through programs for young and old and even hosted a pop-up vaccine clinic!

As the Chinese population established roots in the area & after the near destruction of the first Chinatown, it became the Chinese Catholic Centre. In the 70s, it became the HQ for one of Toronto's earliest gay rights groups, the Community Homophile Association of Toronto (CHAT).

The Cecil Community Centre's building has a rich history reflective of the neighbourhood around it. Built in 1890 by architects Knox and Elliott, it was originally a church for the Protestant congregation of the Church of Christ.

Located in West Chinatown at 58 Cecil St. the community centre which opened in 1978 has had the mission to "foster a sense of community and enhance the quality of life through the development, encouragement and support of programs and activities responsive to local needs."

Due to the province's extended COVID-19 safety measures, many projects for this year's Intersections festival pivoted to be offered fully online. #DYK "ChinaTOwn: Future Heritage(s) of Toronto's Chinatowns" exhibition was originally supposed to take place at the @CecilCentre ?

The work we continue to do will be met with negativity, racism and injustice but that hasn’t stopped us and won’t stop us now. This experience only makes us work harder and advocate for those who need it #StrongerTogether #TeamToronto cecilcentre.ca

Thank you to the Torontonians and Ontarions that have reached out to share their disappointment in the actions seen not only at our #VaccineClinicPopup but others across the city. We continue to not only fight against #COVID19 but racism and inequality cbc.ca/news/canada/to…

Our #VaccineClinic was a huge success, thank you to everyone who supported and showed up in solidarity for our community. 2000 doses administered so that #Toronto can have a safe and fun summer, our work for our community continues!

The #COVIDVaccine clinic at @CecilCentre is ONLY giving first doses. Do not wait in line if you are looking for your 2nd dose & be kind to our team - they work incredibly hard to vaccinate as many people as possible. Abuse is not tolerated. #BeKind @VaxHuntersCan @TOVaccineFinder

Just a reminder we have lots of appointments and openings for the #PfizerVaccine today for anyone 12+ and are open until 8pm, share this post with anyone looking to get vaccinated. The lines are very short. #GetVaccinated #FightAgainstCOVID19 #Toronto
