About Tomsak
Welcome / Բարի գալուստ to Tomsak. Founded by a dedicated group of high school studentsNina, Aratta, Ernest, and Artaz. Tomsak was born from a shared passion for our Armenian roots and a vision for a more connected diaspora. Growing up in our vibrant community, we realized that discovering local events was often a challenge, with information scattered across various platforms or shared only by word of mouth. We created Tomsak to change that. As Canada’s central hub for Armenian cultural events, especially within the Greater Toronto Area, our platform serves as a professional and welcoming bridge for community discovery. We provide a single, reliable space where you can easily find, share, and join everything from art exhibitions and concerts to traditional celebrations and social gatherings. Our goal is to empower the Armenian community by simplifying access to cultural activities, fostering meaningful connections between generations, and supporting the vital work of cultural preservation. We believe that by making it easier to stay involved, we help keep our heritage active and flourishing across North America. This professional platform is more than just a calendar; it is a tool for unity and growth, built by the community for the community. We invite you to explore, connect, and celebrate our rich culture with us as we work together to ensure our traditions remain accessible and vibrant for years to come.
