TORONTO’S YOUTH CULTURE THROUGH OUR MUSIC SCENE

We break down how Toronto’s music scene has long been a defining force in its culture, and how the loss of genre-specific and affordable venues makes it harder for the city’s youth to connect, build community and express their identity through music.
Our engagement reporter Adele Lukusa, video producer Anthony Lippa-Hardy and associate video producer Amartya Smaran explore Toronto’s youth culture through its music experts, fans, artists and organizers. Watch the video to dive into the city's vibe and read the article to learn how you can tap into the local music scene.
We're hosting a one-of-a-kind night on Aug. 21 starting 6 p.m. to explore Toronto’s youth culture through our evolving music scenes. First, we're hosting a panel and listening party at CONTXT by Trane featuring two local artists, one superfan and one music expert. Then, we're heading downstairs to BSMT 254 for a DJ dance party.
Coming soon.
