Illuminated streets, artistic streaks. Nuit Blanche Toronto

Tonight, Toronto pulses with creativity as Nuit Blanche transforms the metropolitan into a nighttime canvas—a haven for contemporary art lovers, casual admirers and night owls alike. Born in Paris in 2001, the art festival was adopted by Toronto in 2006. Since then, once a year, it has turned urban spaces into nocturnal open-air galleries, open from 7pm to 7am.

For its 2024 edition, Nuit Blanche will spotlight works by leading international artists. Study art pieces that offer thought-provoking commentary on this year's theme, 'Bridging Distance.' The event invites audiences to explore three exhibitions and over 80 works by national and international artists. The Waterfront West Exhibition will feature 'The Weight of Levity,' curated by independent curator Su-Ying Lee. The Central Exhibition will present an installation by Dr. Syrus Marcus Ware, titled 'And the Spaces Between Us Smiled.' 'Cat's Cradle' by Danica Pinteric is the third exhibit, showcased at Waterfront East. Come join us for an unforgettable artistic journey.
