- **Event Start and End Date**: Thu, 01 May, 2025 at 12:00 am – Thu, 15 May, 2025 at 12:00 am
- **Event Description**: May 1-31, across the Greater Toronto & Hamilton Area

The 40th annual Mayworks Festival of Working People & the Arts bears witness to the strength, struggle and imagination of communities seeking labour justice, land sovereignty and dignified life.

Whether working in multi-channel video, experimental film, a walking tour, sculpture-based installation, poetry, theatre, or mural art on the Steelworkers Building, the artists work within an honoured tradition of artistic practices engaged in social change.

The works question migrant labour practices, forced displacement, as well as the unbridled expansion of gig work. They explore our fears of organizing, the realities of incarceration, unexplained disappearances, and the resistance that continues to propel us forward.

Marking our 40th anniversary, we acknowledge the many people who have come before us, whose values and commitments have led to Mayworks continued presence as Canada’s largest and longest-running labour arts festival. In their honour, we are excited to launch our Digital Festival Archive, a contemporary tool which brings together 40 years of festival programs, searchable by artist.

Engage in the artwork of our time! All programs are free, some require registration. Join us.
