Yesterday, Long Winter announced its takeover of Harbourfront Centre as part of the Festival of Cool: The Arctic this December 13 from 7 pm – 2 am. For their second event of the season, Toronto’s most eclectic local presenter will fill the expanse of Harbourfront Centre’s main building with a dense, high-energy fusion of the best in local DIY and underground scenes, alongside artists from across the Arctic Circle.
The Arctic Night will feature performances from Casey MQ, ANAMAI, Frosty Valentine, and more! There will also be multi-media artists such as Marja Helander, a Sámi photographer, video artist and film-maker with roots both in Helsinki and Utsjoki, Nicholas Galanin’s (Tlingit/Unangax) latest work Fair Warning: A Sacred Place, and Jamaica-based painter and illustrator Krystal Ball.
