CULTURE DAYS

SEASON: Fall

LOCATION: Multiple venues around Stratford

WEBSITE: www.culturedays.ca/

HIGHLIGHT: Experience Stratford’s cultural talent

Culture Days are celebrated annually across Canada for three days from the last Friday of September through the following weekend. The goal is to have every Canadian love culture. From morning until night, volunteers run free public events to raise awareness, provide accessibility, and encourage participation in all forms of arts and culture in their communities. Each year, Canadian communities bring a different mix to the smorgasbord of cultural choices.

In Stratford, over forty different events might include art shows, theatre classes, ballet classes, puppet workshops, readings, dance and musical performances, walking tours, photography, or Stratford Festival workshops. The Stratford Symphony, art galleries, theatres, library, and museums all take part.

If you are a writer, composer, designer, painter, sculptor, performer, singer, dancer, musician, or any other type of artist, Culture Days provides a platform for you to showcase your work. If you are not an artist, Culture Days is an opportunity to participate in artistic activities, learn a new craft, talk to an artist, or try an art form you have always wanted to experience. If you are not a hands-on kind of person, you can sit back, relax, and enjoy the myriad cultural happenings in the community.
