Following successful engagements in Venice and Ottawa, UNCEDED brings its breathtaking, immersive experience of the beauty, creativity and worldviews of Indigenous architects to amiskwaciwâskahikan, also known as Edmonton – opening March 15 in the heart of downtown.
Led by the world renowned “Contemporary Master of Architecture” and traditional Elder Douglas Cardinal, UNCEDED showcases the works and worldview of 18 prominent Indigenous architects and designers from across Turtle Island who share an Indigenous vision for the future of our human family.
The Downtown Defrost is a unique and vibrant electronic music festival deeply
rooted in the community of Edmonton. From its humble beginnings in 2015,
the festival has grown exponentially, thanks to the dedication and passion of
local visionaries and volunteers. As we approach our 10-year anniversary, The
Downtown Defrost remains the only event of its kind in Edmonton, showcasing
a blend of international and local talent. Held annually in Churchill Square, the
festival transforms the heart of the city into a cultural haven, featuring
immersive art installations, an artisan market, and family-friendly activities. This
milestone year promises to celebrate a decade of bringing people together,
fostering community spirit, and highlighting Edmonton as a premier destination
for music and arts.
