Les escales improbables de Montréal
In its sixth year, Les Escales explores, as per usual, the "unexpected" side of visual arts, music, et. al., but organizers want you to just show up at the Old Port without a schedule this year. And there is no schedule, just a list of artists. What I can tell you is between 2 p.m. and 6 p.m. on any day of the event, and you might see graffiti arts in progress, three dancers "conversing" with a car, maybe a box. Also, the The National Parcs will be one of the artists featured during musical nap time, a regular Escales feature.
