Robust marketing for the festival and annual show started in February and is continuing throughout April and May. Listings in Akimbo, In The Hill magazine, and THE GRIND, exclusively distributed on the TTC, are extending the reach of this show and festival.
The ongoing support of more local and regional networks, such as Mississauga Arts Council, Brampton Arts Organization, Tourism Caledon, the Downtown BIA in Georgetown, ensures that the word is getting out there, along with press releases to mainstream media.
