Summer Rooftop Patio Series

Thursdays 16 June–18 August, 5–9 PM

This summer Edmonton’s downtown rooftop patio party returns alongside a new selection of one-week mini-shows from artists in the Edmonton community. Latitude 53’s Rooftop Patio Series enters its fifth year with a fresh mix of the ingredients that have made it a favourite: guest hosts from the community, delicious cocktail and food selections each week, fine company in Edmonton’s sunny season, and the unmistakeable atmosphere of Latitude 53 Contemporary Visual Culture out on the patio and inside the gallery.

This year, Patio is bigger than ever! As well as fantastic guest hosts, weekly cocktails, and snacks courtesy of Café Select , Blue Pate Diner , Elm Café , Haweli and Mongolie Grill , the patio finds its perfect match with the Summer Incubator Series all summer long. Ten shows by Edmonton artists will fill Latitude 53’s Community Gallery space. Now more than ever, there will be something to come back for each week, as the shows celebrate mini-openings at the Thursday evening patio parties.
