The National Stiltwalkers of Canada celebrate 15 years of High Spirited entertainment. Heightened fun at the Lantern Parade, the Stilt Fashion Show, and the Stilt Olympics. Bring your stilts (or use ours) and join us in the StiltsVille High Society Lounge.
Drop in and shoot hoops, slam dunk and rock a 3-point challenge competition. Sharpen your skills with the NAIT Ooks, (winners of the 2016 CCAA Men’s Basketball National Championship) and Andrew G. Parker (coach of the M.E. Lazerte Voyageurs). Daily slam dunk exhibition at 3:00pm! Right next to the Rhythm Speaks Hip Hop Tent featuring Edmonton hip hop artists and street art by student artists from Highlands School.
We are thrilled to welcome back chalk artist Ian Morris from Victoria, BC. He will be creating a large two-dimensional image that will create the illusion of 3D, especially when you look through a camera! Come be a part of the chalk art fun and create your own masterpiece in the Chalk It Up Zone. Local artists Trina Lewis and Jay Bigam will be creating alongside festival-goers. Sidewalk chalk provided.
Come experience the richness of Peking opera which is recognized by UNESCO as an intangible cultural heritage and has had an extensive influence on modern European theatre through Stanislavsky and Brecht. The program features acclaimed artist William Lau and his collaborators in captivating excerpts of classical repertoires with magnificent costumes, extraordinary make-up, refined performance and powerful drama. English translation and lively introduction will guide you into this distinctive art form.
Autumn is a welcoming time for communities to share a richness of their heritage and traditions. Join a cultural celebration including artisans, music and dance of the First Nations, Inuit and Métis peoples at the Takwakin Village. There will be traditional crafts for sale as well as craft workshops and demonstrations. (Fish scale art, bannock tasting, Métis finger weaving, Cree language lessons, and flint & steel firemaking).
