Welcome to the RAID Universe!
The Royal Academy of Illustration and Design (RAID) is an award-winning artist collective in Parkdale, Toronto. We host a cozy cafe and art gallery open to the public and an innovative network at the back of the house, built to offer creators a space for collaboration and community building.
