Nuit Blanche Edmonton is working hard to bring its all-night contemporary art event back to Edmonton in 2018, today announcing a new partnership with ATB Financial.
“Nuit Blanche Edmonton is ecstatic about this new partnership with ATB to help bring amazing contemporary art back to Edmonton’s downtown core next year,” says Todd Janes, Board Chair and President of Nuit Blanche Edmonton Society.
The event organizers hope to scale up the event from 50,000 attendees in 2015, to 75,000 in September 2018.
“We’re thrilled to once again see the downtown alive in the late hours of the night with Edmontonians taking in all kinds of eye-catching artwork,” says Dave Mowat, President and CEO of ATB Financial. “Nuit Blanche really is a unique and exhilarating way to experience art in our city.”
