In Sight Festival, seeing a brighter future…… aims to create an event where all families and individuals can experience Arts & Culture activities through engagement.   This Festival, in its third year, will showcase local performing and visual artists including special cultural performances presenting and connecting artists with the public.  It is hoped that our Festival will be located in a picturesque space so that we can provide a vibrant backdrop for a mosaic of music, dance, children’s activities, visual arts, storytelling & food.   

Set to be a full day program for Saturday and Sunday, the festival will provide options for families and individuals to attend.   This will be a gathering that connects our community together through Arts and cultural activities that provides awareness and understanding of our local surroundings both past and present. In keeping with our values of openness and cultural diversity, it is our sincere wish that the Festival will provide a welcoming environment for the local Songhees & Esquimalt Nation as well as many other cultures to connect with South Island citizens.
