Green Shack Shows
The Edmonton Arts Council is excited to partner with City of Edmonton Green Shacks again this summer to host Green Shack Shows – free arts performances for children at Green Shacks in all wards of the City, five days a week in July and August! Due to popular demand, this year we’ve doubled our schedule and will be offering four shows per day for an anticipated total of 148 shows (weather and air quality dependent). Performers include a diverse array of local artists in theatre, dance, magic, music and more.
