This initiative will lead to the upcoming official launch of the first multidisciplinary arts center in Northeastern Ontario.
Place des Arts plans to present 850 cultural activities annually. It expects to attract approximately 50,000 visitors annually to downtown Sudbury.
For the Francophone population of Northern Ontario, Place des Arts is a much-anticipated gathering place to share stories and celebrate a rich cultural tradition through theater, music, visual arts, dance, folklore, spoken word and book launches.
