For one night only, the streets will come alive with an exciting program of free contemporary artistic activities, events and exhibits taking place in unconventional places in and around Huntsville’s downtown core!
Nuit Blanche North is a free late-night art event where cutting-edge artists light up downtown Huntsville with radical art exhibits and eccentric performances.
Inspired by the Nuit Blanche event started in Paris France in 2002, we invite visitors to stay up late and experience truly unique works of art in public spaces. The fun begins at sunset and continues into the wee hours of the morning. Visitors can wander through the streets of Huntsville to discover surprising works of art in unexpected places. From street theatre, to music, to sculpture, to film, and interactive exhibits, there is something for everyone, and many ways to join in the fun. Come explore, discover, debate, create and participate. No experience necessary, just a desire to stay up late and play!
Nuit Blanche North is presented in partnership by the Huntsville Festival of the Arts and Edge of the Woods Theatre. The goal of the event is to present fun, engaging and accessible works of art, and to support the local economy by bringing visitors downtown, and providing opportunities for local artists to create and present their work.

Her albums have sold over 100,000 copies and counts among her fans: Josh Ritter, Kathleen Edwards, Kris Kristofferson (who hails Jill as a “real songwriter, a damn good songwriter”) and collaborator Ron Sexsmith. Through her music she confidently tackles everything from issues of empowerment, sexual politics, the complications of love, and depression. It’s introspective and personal. It’s also a dance party. To hear her voice is to hear the evocative voice of an artist who has drawn inspiration from a cross-section of musical genres.

2019-08-03 20:00 - 22:00 | Algonquin Theatre, 37 Main Street East, Huntsville, Ontario, P1H 1C1, Canada
Winner of the 2018 Polaris Prize, and a 2019 Juno for his album Wolastoqiyik Lintuwakonawa, this incredible artist makes his first appearance on the Festival Stage.
A Wolastoqiyik member of the Tobique First Nation in New Brunswick, Dutcher studied music and anthropology at Dalhousie University. He recorded Wolastoqiyik Lintuwakonawa, following a research project on old archival recordings of traditional Maliseet songs at the Canadian Museum of Civilization. He painstakingly transcribed Wolastoq songs from 1907 wax cylinders. As he listened to each recording, he felt his own musical impulses stirring from deep within. Long days at the archives turned into long nights at the piano, feeling out melodies and phrases, deep in dialogue with the voices of his ancestors.
