Multicultural History Society of Ontario

The Multicultural History Society of Ontario (MHSO) is a not-for-profit educational institution and archives in Toronto. Established in 1976, MHSO collects, preserves, and makes available records of our histories of migration and ethnicity. It undertakes educational programming to increase appreciation of the importance of diversity to the development and ongoing vitality of the province.

The MHSO has produced and distributed publications, mounted and circulated exhibitions, and staged conferences, public lectures, and special events. In recent years, it has focused on virtual programming. The MHSO also provides professional and technical services and training to teachers and students, scholars and community historians, heritage and cultural organizations, and members of ethnocultural and indigenous communities.
