Another music festival is making creative changes to stay connected.
The Harvest Sun Festival 2020 in Kelwood has been cancelled due to social distancing orders.
The family-operated festival was designed to bring exposure to Manitoban artists, growers, and makers through music, and this would’ve been their 15th year running.
Director of the Harvest Sun Music Festival, Nadia Kuhl says that they will continue to celebrate with their 'online event, 'From Our Backyard To Yours."
“We thought it would be pretty cool to get all of the artists that would’ve been onstage at the festival to put something together from wherever they are in the world. Whether they’re in their backyard, living room, whatever. Then we will compile it together and put it up online on the 22nd.”
Access to the online event is free; however, donations towards the artists are being accepted.
Nadia adds that you can choose a specific artist that you would like to support.
