North Bay
By Ontario Culture Days
North Bay is in the Nipissing Region of Ontario on the shores of Lake Nipissing and Trout Lake. Celebrated for its beautiful scenery, it also has a vibrant local arts scene. This year, we spoke to community organizer and Chair of Nipissing Culture Days, Reinalie Jorolan, about The Gateway To Diversity Festival launching on September 24 & 25, and Intercultural Day on September 26. Take a look at some of what makes North Bay such a special place, including these Culture Days events [link]. It is home to a number of locally-owned galleries and boasts some must-try food.
