Jet-lagged sa Toronto? Or just want an intensive all-night introduction to the city’s art scene?

Pagkatapos suriin ang Scotiabank Nuit Blanche Toronto, isang takipsilim-to-liwayway pagdiriwang ng kapanahon sining.

Sa 500 mga artist kasangkot sa higit sa 130 proyekto, ang festivities begin this Saturday, Oktubre 3, sa 6:55 pm and continue until sunrise ang susunod na umaga.

Upang planuhin ang iyong mga gabi o hanapin ang iyong paraan, tingnan ang interactive tools on the Nuit Blanche website. Get a list of performers, mga kaganapan, and installations here.

Sa panahon ng gabi, Maaari mo ring bisitahin ang isa sa mga four Nuit Blanche information centers:

• Yonge-Dundas Square: southeast corner of Yonge St. and Dundas St. East
• Union Station: 65 Front St., sa Bay St., kalye antas
• Scotia Plaza: 40 Hari St. Kanluran, ipasok mula sa Adelaide St. and King St.
• Lamport Stadium: 1151 Hari St. Kanluran, south parking lot, ipasok mula sa Liberty Street.

Nakaraang taon, roughly a million people came out for Toronto’s Nuit Blanche. Organizers expect crowds to be at their peak between 8 pm and 1 sa, so they’re advising night owls to head out after 1 and early risers to take to the streets between 5 at 7 sa.

Better rest up now!

And if you won’t be in Toronto this weekend, mark your calendar for February 27, 2010, when Montreal will host its own all-night arts party, ang Montreal All-Nighter.
