The Confederation Centre of the Arts in Charlottetown, built in 1964 to commemorate the centenary of the Charlottetown Conference(1-9 September 1864), was the inspiration behind the founding of the Charlottetown Summer Festival [often designated "Charlottetown Festival"]. A summer festival of Canadian performers organized by Mayor Moore to celebrate the opening of the Centre was so successful that Moore was retained as the first artistic director of an annual event dedicated to the encouragement of Canadian writers and performers.

Construit pour commémorer le centenaire de la Conférence de Charlottetown (du 1er au 9 septembre 1864), le Centre des arts de la Confédération à Charlottetown a inspiré la création du Festival d'été de Charlottetown (souvent désigné «Festival de Charlottetown»).

Saint John, Canada's oldest incorporated city comes alive with colour and excitement as Festival by the Sea, one of Canada's foremost national performing arts festivals, presents seven days of sensational entertainment in celebration of Canada's rich culture and heritage. Festival by the Sea originated as the cultural component of the Canada Games in 1985. This event included many fine facilities devoted to the athletes but perhaps more importantly, created an environment where people came to believe and expect that Saint John could produce and support excellence. The first edition of Festival by the Sea was the brainchild of Walter Ball, a well known local educator and musician.

The Festival has been in continuous existence from 1945 to the present. It was originally known as the Ottawa Music Festival Association until 1985 when the Kiwanis Clubs of the National Capital Region assumed shared responsibility with non-Kiwanian volunteers for the Festival. At that time the name of the organization was changed to the Kiwanis Music Festival. Later the Festival was expanded to include Dance competitions as well as Music. The name of the organization was then changed to its current title. With the incorporation of Dance, the Festival has grown in size from about sixth place in the Province to second place. The Festival has maintained a steady growth in number of entries ever since. 1998 will be the fourth year for Speech Arts. The first year saw our best go to the Provincial competition and after winning there proceeded on to win the National competition.

CONT

The Montreal High Lights Festival will continue to be bold and creative in order to make this festival more accessible to a wider range of artistic creations in all their forms, be they theatre, music, plastic, gastronomical or luminous. And more notably by pursuing even further the concept of urban animation and by proposing new themes for the performing arts, which next year will be devoted to vocal art. It's in this context that the festival will consolidate, sometime this year its twinning with the city of Lyon who has also in the last two years, produced during the month of December, its very own light festival; le Festival Lyon Lumière. Montreal' s third year of the HIGH LIGHTS Festival, with its programming of special events, surprising flavours and an urban animation segment that promises to be even more dazzling, will take place from Thursday, February the 14th to Sunday, March 3rd 2002. Happy season's end Montreal.

CONT

La mixité est la condition nécessaire à la création d'un ensemble urbain vivant, qui contribuera au dynamisme de l'Est vincennois. Si l'implantation de commerces est nécessaire à l'animation urbaine, il convient de ne pas permettre l'implantation de grandes surfaces susceptibles de mettre en péril les commerces existants. Vincennes a en effet la chance de bénéficier de quartiers commerçants et d'un centre ville très actifs.

CONT

Montréal en lumière fera preuve d'audace et de créativité afin de rendre de plus en plus accessible au plus grand nombre la création artistique sous toutes ses formes, qu'elle soit théâtrale, musicale, plastique, gustative ou lumineuse, notamment en poussant encore plus loin le concept d'animation urbaine et proposant une nouvelle thématique des arts de la scène qui sera consacrée l'an prochain à l'art vocal. C'est dans ce contexte aussi que le Festival consolidera, d'ici l'an prochain, son jumelage avec la Ville de Lyon, qui réalise, elle aussi depuis deux ans, au cours du mois de décembre, le Festival Lyon lumière. La troisième édition du Festival MONTRÉAL EN LUMIÈRE, avec une programmation d'événements spéciaux, savoureuse et un volet d'animation urbaine encore plus électrisant, aura lieu du jeudi 14 février au dimanche 3 mars 2002.

Foundry Day succeeds under threatening sky. Despite clouds and dark skies Saturday, the rain held off, making it an enjoyable day for all who attended the 11th annual Foundry Day Arts and Crafts Festival...

CONT

The weather this year is completely confused ... Saturday, just as the afternoon began to get busy, a front came through, quick and wild, with thunderstorms, heavy gusts, and rain drenching and thick. In front of the storm was a strange sky. I’ve never seen one like it before. There were fat smears of green, dark and dirty but clearly and dramatically green, mixed into the clouds, among long braids of grey and black. It was an ugly sky, bitter, bad mannered, resentful, mean. A sky like a swaggering thug looking for someone to hurt.
