« Mayworks Festival of Working People and the Arts is a community-based festival which annually presents new works by a diverse and broad range of artists, who are both workers and activists. Our programming presents bold, insightful, responses to pressing issues at the intersection of art, social justice and labour. 

Mayworks prioritizes the representation and participation of artists and audiences from communities facing systemic discrimination. We encourage works rooted in the reality of working people’s lives that advance the struggle for improved working and living conditions. Mayworks operates within an anti-oppression framework. We are actively engaged in a dialogue that challenges the logics of capitalism and seeks to further our struggles for better working & living conditions.

All Mayworks Festival programs are free. For events with limited capacity, registration is required. »
