DIY Spring Festival June 5, 2020

DIY Spring Festival (Ottawa, ON) June 5, promotes, supports and celebrates the work of emerging Black, Indigenous and racialized artists in the Ottawa area through an annual music and arts festival. They work to create a futurist stage that supports the ideas, narratives and performances of developing artists and audiences in the communities we operate in. DIY Spring Festival is a celebration of the season of rebirth and renewal and its curation focuses on artists with innovative visions. DIY Spring has received an ‘A’ grade on the Canadian Festival Report Card for the past two years.

Secret Frequency (formerly Canadian Women Working in Music) is and education and advocacy not-for-profit dedicated to raising the profile of under-represented people within Canada’s music community – women, trans and non-binary folks, racialized and Indigenous people, and more.

We’d like the music community to be as awesome as it pretends to be. We want it to be a safe, good place to party, to create, and to work.

We’re ready to rock the boat, even if it’s the boat that some of us are sitting in; no organization or individual should be above question or consequences.

If you don’t invite us to the table, we’ll show up anyway, and we’ll bring our own chair.

We produce the annual Canadian Festival Report Card, grading Gender representation on Festival stages, skills workshops, research, and more. We aim to create initiatives with demonstrable, measurable impact, which are also accessible and modular, designed to be shared and implemented by other organizations.
