Focal Point: Friday, Sept. 28

It’s that time of year again – time for insomniacs and artists, alike, to wander the streets from dusk until dawn as they take in the sights and sounds of Toronto’s seventh annual Nuite Blanche. You can check out over 150 contemporary art projects within three zones, all across the city. Things get underway tomorrow (Saturday, Sept. 29) as the sun sets and roll on until dawn. So get your camera ready and capture some of the action!
