A monkey's 4-day arts and entertainment outlook

We at Sootoday's arts and entertainment page are as happy as a psychedelic monkey to provide you with our latest 4-day arts and entertainment outlook (courtesy of the Arts Council of Sault Ste. Marie and District). From the sweet sounds of the Granola People to the disenchanted politics of Matt Good, this weekend may not quite be a music jungle, but will 'rock' nontheless.

If you have any other arts-related events or activities that you would like to add to our page, email us at [email protected].

(We will be updating this guide throughout the day)
