Burlington, Ont.—Sept. 14, 2022—The City of Burlington invites residents to join local artists, cultural professionals and creative organizations in attending free and interactive events and activities in person or online during the 13e Annual Culture Days.
Culture Days will take place from September 23 to October 16, 2022. This year, it is expanding beyond its traditional weekend format to feature a more inclusive and interactive three-week schedule of programs and events. .
Canada is ready for a re-emergence of arts and culture, and so is Culture Days. As the world navigates past norms and designs new solutions for everyday life, arts, culture and expression play a vital role in a healthy and prosperous society. This year’s theme, RE: Emergence, explores new ideas and innovation in arts and culture while committing to creating tangible change in the sector and society. As we learn to live with COVID-19, the Ontario Culture Days Festival will offer a mix of in-person events as well as digital and self-guided programming. Participants are asked to ensure that they follow municipal, regional, provincial and public health guidelines in their area. Ontario Culture Days has created event pages for attendees and ways to experience arts and culture across Ontario.
