In 2012, in response to the success of the Gifted exhibition at the Archives of Ontario, Ontario Society of Artists (OSA) members donated 56 contemporary artworks to the Government of Ontario Art Collection to mark the 140th anniversary of the OSA as well as their continued relationship with the province. By far the largest gift of OSA works to date, the 2012 donation brought 43 new artists into the provincial art collection — many of whom were also recent immigrants to Canada, broadening the diversity of perspectives and experiences reflected within the collection. Artworks included a wide range of sculpture, mixed media, and paintings.
