Every year, millions of Canadians engage in thousands of free activities and performances hosted by artists, cultural organizations and municipalities in communities across Canada. From Nunavut to New Brunswick, and from British Columbia to Baffin Island – and all points in between – we share all the inspiration, artistry, creativity and expression that reflects the mosaic of Canadian culture.
This year in St. Thomas you'll find plenty of activities for all ages and skill levels! Try your hand at a guided art project, take in a free tour or even get your hands dirty in a community garden.
Check out our condensed guide below to help you find the best activities for you this 2017 Culture Days weekend, or click here to find the detailed Culture Days St. Thomas info.
