Like the aurora borealis that dance above in our northern skies, the Francophone culture, in all its diversity, will be shining bright at this year’s Deep Freeze: A Byzantine Winter Fête. The centrepiece of the Francophone promenade will be “Les marionnettes,” an installation of light, sound, and poetry tucked into the trees of Borden Park. Visitors will be brought into a world where the stars sing and a fiddler makes the northern lights dance.
