WHY DO WE DO THIS?
Not only does this event support our neighbourhood businesses, but it also raises funds to support a variety of programs that promote access to healthy food, including a food voucher program in partnership with The Four Villages Community Health Centre. The voucher program facilitates equitable access to local healthy food for low income residents in the community. Last year the market was able to help over 160 families to receive access to healthy food.

NEW THIS YEAR!
More vendors, more fun, and more environmentally-friendly! That's right. This year we will have reusable mugware from Dream Zero and a limited number of JFM branded glassware for sale to keep you looking cool and help reduce our event carbon footprint!

Stay tuned for more details:

West Toronto Junction City Presents Free Summer Concerts and Family Fun

"Junction City" Centennial Events April 12, 2008
Originally uploaded by IT Ceremony.

2008 will be the first summer that the Junction Forum for Art and Culture will present the Live Summer Concert Series in the Junction.

Every Saturday from June 14 to August 2, 2008 the Junction Train Platform in the West Toronto Junction City Square, 2960 Dundas Street West at Pacific Avenue will be alive with entertainment and activities for everyone to enjoy.

From 10 am local businesses will gather in the Junction organic farmers' market, where you can also get a circus lesson from Toronto Aerial Dance Theatre, have a photo taken in period costume, contribute a story to [murmur], take a walking tour presented by the West Toronto Junction Historical Society( at 1:30 pm), and more.

All of this will be centred around the noon free concerts representing the wide range of cultures making up the Junction including; Maltese, Jamaican, Kenyan, Mexican, Peruvian, Spanish, Celtic and North American.

Students from the Academy of Realist Art have completed an historic-themed mural on the left side of the platform area the last few weeks as well - sand some landscaping has been added to the area to green-it-up.

So come up to the Junction for brunch, then head over to the Junction Train Platform to see what's going on.

JUNE 2008 LIVE CONCERT SCHEDULE
All concerts start at noon on the Junction Train Platform

• June 14 concert will feature Donné Roberts
Juno award winner and Urban Music award nominated Canada’s Afro-cosmopolitan artist

If the immortal sounds of Fela Kuti, Jimi Hendrix, Carlos Santana, Peter Gabriel and Richie Havens were to come together as one, their torchbearer might very well be Madagascar-born, Russian-raised and now Toronto-based guitarist Donné Roberts. Effortlessly combining poly-rhythmic African and European folk & groove and blazing North American funk, rock and blues influences, Roberts and his 6-piece band deliver a remarkably diverse, infectiously joyful and utterly unique live music experience.

• June 21 concert will feature Pagan Jam
Celebrate the Solstice

Join us for an hour of Pagan music and chants as we pay tribute to the Solstice with a group of local Toronto and Junction musicians brought together by local recording engineer Chris Hall. This will be followed at night by the Junction Community in Bloom Summer Solstice Lantern Tour of the area celebrating the Junction's mix of grit and community and reminding us of Earth Hour's conservation message.

• June 28 concert will feature Malta Band Club
30 Piece Band

The Malta Band Club was founded by a group of dedicated Maltese musicians who mostly lived on Dundas Street and the surrounding area. The club had its beginnings in the late 1960's as a marching band organized by the Maltese Canadian Society of Toronto. In 1971, the band members decided to branch out on their own and formed the now popular and successful Malta Band Club, Inc.


JUNE 2008 West Toronto Junction Historical Society Walking Tours SCHEDULE
All tours start at 1:30 pm at the Junction Train Platform

• June 14, June 21, June 28

Following Summer Concerts in the Junction at the Pacific Station (Just east of the North East Corner of Pacific and Dundas) WTJHS Historical Walking Tours led by historical characters. The first three tours, June 14, 21, 28 will visit the Carlton Davenport district north east of the station.
