Long Winter announces 10th anniversary “Together Apart” festival

This fall, Long Winter is pleased to present a special 10th anniversary extension to its winter series.  Together Apart activities run September – November 2021, with the aim of connecting DIY music and arts communities across Ontario, Europe, and beyond.

Festivities will include an outdoor rooftop concert series at the Garrison featuring FIVER, monthly editions of a cross-city zine,  installations by partner curators Bunker 2 and Younger than Beyoncé,  features by Unit 2,  Sou Sou, Strangewaves and more, IRL / cross-stream live performances from Toronto (St. Anne’s) and La Station in Paris, France, with a multi-channel video program co-produced with Collectif Ascidiacea and  Club Quarantine, articles and playlists on Long Winter’s blog, through StationStation radio, and more.

Long Winter’s Together Apart showcases local underground and DIY music scenes in Ontario and France. The Toronto-Paris partnership includes a conference and workshop stream with  resources and information-sharing between local collectives. Focused on issues of space access, it bridges needs and interests of DIY and underground communities internationally, providing exchange between scenes, and cross-sector dialogue between local arts communities and researchers, urban planners and policy makers.
