Once simply a school field trip destination, Fort York has recently changed itself into a haven for arts and culture, as well as history. Coinciding with the opening of the new visitor centre, On Common Ground Festival is occupying the site for two full days of music, dance, food, and crafts. Check out performances from the Toronto Mass Choir, Kaeja d’Dance, puppetry and other fun stuff from Red Pepper Spectacle Arts, New Orleans party tunes by DRUMHAND, and much more.
