️ Mel Lastman Square – June 20th

North York Arts and Reel Asian are partnering with @yongenorthyork to present a special,
free community event to celebrate the festivities of the soccer season.

Join the community in watching the live soccer match between Germany and Ivory Coast.

Get creative and show your team spirit by getting hands-on in a variety of free,
soccer-themed art activations.

This event brings arts, sport, and storytelling together to celebrate cultural identity, teamwork,
and power of representation on and off the field.
