Thanks for the great season!

Thank you to all the performers, visual artists, sponsors and staff for creating a fantastic 2021 Arts in the Park.

Our six weeks of programming featured more than 40 shows with 75 different musicians and visual artists. Performances included live concerts at MacBride Museum, daily broadcasts (Monday to Friday) on CJUC 92.FM, a mini Arts in the Park Series at Seniors’ Care Homes and school performances. Our Artist in the Window series also featured a new visual artist, art installation and demo each week of our series. Thanks to a partnership with CFYT 106.9 FM, KIAC and Parks Canada,  we were also able to broadcast artists from Dawson City each Thursday.

Did you miss some of our radio broadcasts this season? All the 2021 Arts in the Park shows are available here

See you in 2022!
