Part of Manifesto’s 10th Annual Festival Art Show included a ten-day art exhibition called “Fly Girl Fly,” which launched on September 10, 2016. Fly Girl Fly was envisioned to be “a celebration of girl magic” that showcased the “creative brilliance and powerful perspectives of a talented group of female artists leading the way in painting, mixed media, photography and installation” (Facebook). The launch party of the exhibition on September 10 included live DJs and alcohol from 7:00 pm until 3:00 a.m. and was “Pay What You Can” (PWYC) until 10:00 p.m., at which point it became $5.00 for entry. While the Manifesto Festival is sponsored by TD Canada Trust and therefore receives quite a bit of media promotion, the marketing for this specific event was very limited. In news articles, it was often overshadowed by the Summit and Block Party, two larger events in the festival that involved more star-power and marketability. On Manifesto’s online festival schedule, the description of the event included “Art Exhibition + Opening Party” with a list of the artists and DJs to perform, but no further details (See Appendix). On Facebook, the event details included the location, time, entry fee, and a short description of the event that highlighted the women-only focus. The same details were provided on Event Brite, but the event was also listed as “Sold Out.” From an audience member’s perspective, this was confusing and frustrating as I did not understand how the event could be sold out…

The Commonwealth does not require parliamentary approval before deploying troops overseas, but since the war prerogative lies with the…

throes of the Asiatic cholera brought in from England, and just like Robinson, a stowaway. Many of the farmers were of German descent with only a few from England or Scotland. There was no village nearby of even the modest size of Fulstow. The buzz around the area at the time was the just opened Colburne Iron Furnace at Olinda that could employ some 60 men. It, in the early 1830s, supplied iron castings and works for points in the US and even spoons for Toronto. Lesson’s for a Would Be Rebel For…
One of the first things that you notice in our group’s poster would be the CN Tower.

Also the CN Tower is one of the 7 wonders of the modern world, making the CN tower an interesting place to visit. The second thing your eyes might have been drawn…

There is so much to see and do, that I couldn't help but feel overwhelmed with my to-do list in New York. I was told that there is only one way to experience New York, and that is on foot. A big part of what makes New York so great is its atmosphere, and you can soak it up for free from just walking the city streets. Of course I took the metro to places too far to walk, but on Saturday, I decided to conquer Soho on foot. The city's neighborhoods, from the Upper East Side to Chinatown to…
