Cameron Public House

The Cameron Public House is a small bar, hotel, and informal cultural centre located on Queen Street West, just west of Spadina Avenue, in downtown Toronto, Ontario, Canada. The Cameron has a front lounge and a back room, both with the capacity for audiences of no more than sixty people. It has been described as a unique Toronto crossover of CBGB's and the Chelsea Hotel in New York. First opened as a working hotel in the early 1920s, since October 1981 the Cameron has provided a stage, backdrop, canvas and incubator for the production of experimental and leading-edge music, performance, and visual art.
