For the next 10 days, you may see many things around Toronto which do
not fit neatly into the traditional realms of the art world. However,
the Toronto Festival Of Arts & Creativity, better known as Luminato,
is well worth checking out and with plenty of free events planned,
including a June 1 opening night concert with Chantal Kreviazuk,
Gordie Sampson and Molly Johnson. And many of these events are not
just one-night only affairs. Here are ten of the bigger events taking

5. AURORAS/TESTIMONY — June 1, The Distillery Historic District
(Artcore)

Film director Atom Egoyan and Kutlug Ataman show two video works which
make their world premiere. Egoyan’s piece concerns the life of Aurora
Mardiganian, a young girl whose story of survival is documented in
the book Ravished Armenia. Meanwhile, Ataman’s piece is a tribute to
his childhood nanny.
