About the FAR Festival des arts de ruelle

Le FAR (Festival des arts de ruelle), founded by Léa Philippe in 2017, presents performances in the lanes, decentralizing artistic proposals to bring them to cultural neighborhoods, closer to the citizens. The FAR opens different artistic practices, daring to offer a vibrant and inclusive program in the naturally intimate and friendly setting of back alleys. Since its creation, the event offers each year an eclectic open-air program made of short performances, and from these atypical proposals, new artistic expressions emerge. The FAR, proudly anchored in the cultural and event calendar of Quebec, usually unfolds from late August to mid-September and culminates the weekend after Labour Day, a thoughtful momentum.
