New Brunswickโs first feminist festival. It aims to broaden the cultural landscape of the Greater Moncton area through artistic and cultural events.
The festival aims to address gender inequalities in Greater Monctonโs cultural landscape, create spaces that offer cross disciplinary activities and empower women and LGBTQIA2S+ communities.
Join us as some of North Americaโs top street painters gather at Downtown Place to undertake giant, 2D & 3D chalk paintings over three days. They will be joined by other New Brunswick artists celebrating our inaugural theme, the History of Rock & Roll.
In addition to our painting zone, our festival has a Kidโs Chalk Zone running throughout the weekend with free chalk. We also present a music stage with great local entertainment from 11am daily โ it all adds up for three days of super outdoor fun in downtown Moncton with master class chalk painters.
Welcome to an incredibly fun, free admission, outdoor festival presenting street theatre performers from all over the world!
From hula-hoop experts to aerial gymnasts, youโll be amazed at the incredible talent.ย Combined with our music stage, it all adds up for a weekend of fun for the whole family!
Colourful, zany acrobatics for the whole family to enjoy!
The circus invades the museum!
Seven zany acrobats and an electrifying musician take in a monochrome exhibit. With a creative spark, they set off an explosion of color. In mocking defiance of convention, these wacky and endearing characters eagerly explore the exhibition inside out.
Dizzying feats, astonishing discoveries, poetic liberties, and a serious dose of some silly good fun come together to fuel this ode to creativity.
Enjoy this exhilarating feast for the senses.
Experience La Galerie.

Artist in Residence: Pudy Tong
Pudy Tong is in residence atย Imago Artist-Run Printย Studio from April 2nd to April 16th 2023. Join us Thursday, April 13th from 5 to 7 pm for a presentation of his work. The presentation will begin at 5:30 pm.ย
Pudy Tongโs (he/him) memories of his immigrant childhood are punctuated by the images of large stacks of Chinese newspapers landing on his familyโs doorstep every two weeks, shipped in from Vancouver to a small rural town in British Columbia. His print-based art practice draws on elements from journalism as the subject through which our experience of contemporary, media-saturated society is refracted, reinterpreted and re-imagined.
He is spending his time at Imago experimenting with how to draw/write text in abstraction, developing a system to randomize newspaper front page layouts, all the while resisting the temptation to just prompt Artificial Intelligence to do the work. He received his BFA from the University of British Columbia Okanagan and an MFA from the Nova Scotia College of Art and Design University. He works out of Open Studio in Toronto and spends just a little too much time scrolling Doge Social (Twitter).
The Frye Festival is the largest literary event in Atlantic Canada and a bilingual celebration of books, ideas and the imagination.
Amounting to ten days of festivities, the festival takes place at the end of April and unfolds in the Greater Moncton region, in neighbouring communities, and, in the case of school visits, all over the province.

Camille-Zoรฉ Valcourt-Synnott (she/her) is a multidisciplinary artist from Quebec (QC), now based in Kโjipuktuk (Halifax, NS). She graduated with a BFA (Print Media) from Concordia University in 2018 and an MFA from NSCAD University in 2020.
Her performances reflect on the value of the artistโs work, perceptions of productivity and where life and art meet. Referencing everyday tasks, (un)remunerated work and invisible labor, her practice points to the flaws already present within the arts but that are, too often, not acknowledged. She is interested in the intersections between labor, gender and class dynamics, and how they all play a part in making certain audiences feel welcome in different art spaces. Her performance and text-based work has been shown in artist-run centers and galleries across Canada.
