Make Some Noise News: Hooded Fang, Harvest Festivals and Ukuleles

Hooded-Fang-Tosta-Mista-Album-Cover-1-914x1024Looking for fun local music-themed stuff to do for the next few weeks? Well, look no further! The Make Some Noise program has a pair of exciting events to tell you about.

 This Saturday, stop by the Sanderson Library to rock out with acclaimed indie artists, Hooded Fang. As with all of our concerts, this one is free and all-ages.

By coincidence, on the same day, Scadding Court Community Centre’s Live Local Market is hosting a Harvest Festival to celebrate food grown and produced in and around Toronto. This day-long event will feature local food and fun activities for people of all ages. It’s a way to celebrate the harvest and to get people thinking about World Food Day coming up on October 16, 2011 – a day that highlights the issues behind poverty and hunger across the globe. (+ There's going to be a BOUNCY CASTLE! Yesssssss).
