This summer there will be a little extra noise buzzing from community Green Shacks.
Performers will be singing, dancing and more five days a week at Green Shacks across the city.
There will be family-friendly arts programming from a variety of artists including the Brasstactics, Theatre Prospero, Fairy Finding and Dr. Auntie Dote.
Métis jigging and Caribbean dancing and games will also be featured at Green Shack Shows.
Performances will run twice a day, the first at 11 a.m. and the second at 2:30 p.m.
An interactive tent by local artist Nancy Nickolson will also be available to explore during the shows.
The Edmonton Arts Council and the city partnered for the initiative to support community-based artistic programming that engages youth through local arts and activities.
You can find out when performances will be in your area at your local Green Shack or here.
Green Shacks open city-wide on July 2.
