Join us for our monthly Rally Against the U.S. Blockade of Cuba.

Started by Cubans in Miami, Puentes de Amor or Bridges of Love, calls for the ending of the 62-year old Blockade which continues to cause major damage to the Cuban economy.

MayWorks 2024: Celebrating Labour and the Arts

Posted November 15th, 2023

Plans for MayWorks 2024: Celebrating Labour and the Arts are now underway.  This yearly festival honours and promotes cultural expressions produced by artists depicting working class life and aspirations as well as by workers interpreting their own lives, work and struggles to build a better world. 

The Festival takes place in May, but can include events in late April and early June.  Artists, performers, writers, dancers, filmmakers, actors, comedians or others who have an exhibit, a performance, a project or an event that they would like included in the festival calendar, please submit a description of that event to info@mayworks.org before March 15, 2024.

MayWorks is a non-profit organization established over 25 years ago, inspired by events surrounding the 75th anniversary of the 1919 Winnipeg General Strike.
