Manifesto
is a non-profit grassroots organization working to unite and energize
Toronto's music and arts community and find innovative ways of working
together towards common goals.
Description
In
2011, the critically acclaimed Manifesto Festival Of Community &
Culture featured 11 days of incredible events across the city,
culminating in a massive free outdoor concert at Yonge & Dundas
Square in the heart of downtown Toronto. Growing to be arguably Canada’s
largest hip hop festival in just five years, Manifesto brings together
hundreds of artists & performers with thousands of attendees,to showcase our city’s talented arts community and strengthen its
foundations, by building a collective sense of pride and possibility.
Through art exhibitions, dance competitions, workshops, free outdoor concerts, film screenings, networking opportunities, seminars, a pop-up arts market, and much more, Manifesto creates powerful and engaging experiences, and provides opportunities for young artists to grow.

Manifesto’s point of origin lies in hip hop culture – in its spirit of
ingenuity, raw creativity, and people power, but we strive to stay out
of boxes and create a platform with the potential to act as a catalyst
for cross-pollination, collaboration, and the growth of new forms in
this city of wildly talented people.
