Toronto’s Nuit Blanche Takes Place Tonight!

Accordion City’s seventh annual Nuit Blanche (Literally “White Night” in French) takes place tonight. This all-night arts festival/urban party started in Nantes, France in the early 1990s and has since been held in cities all over the globe. Starting at 7:03 p.m. — sundown — and ending around when the sun returns, it’s a night where public space is used for displays of contemporary art: displays, installations, interactive and performance art.
