    On August 22 -24, affirm your commitment to Saskatoon's future — a clean, green, self-sufficient Saskatoon.

    Imagine if 20 per cent of a city's population were assembled and together agreed to individually implement at least one environmentally beneficial action. This is the We Are Many model - pulling together a significant proportion of the city's community and asking them to agree to implement at least one of a list of specific, effective, and locally-relevant actions. Multiplied across the city, each individual action contributes to massive, measurable change - environmental impact we can actually see.

    Workshops and symposia at the WAM Festival site will help people gain the skills they need in order to make simple changes to their lifestyles. And did we mention? Performances and guest features by Fred Penner, the Weakerthans, Tom Jackson, Yann Martel, Guy Vanderhaeghe, Theresa Sokyrka, and more!

    We are working with the City of Saskatoon to measure post-Festival changes in bus ridership, traffic patterns, landfill usage, energy and water consumption per household, and more.  WAM also incorporates many side projects - murals around the city for public education, a Green Lawyers group, and many others.

    Visit http://www.wearemanyfestival.com/ for information, including how to volunteer.

    See you there!
