SUMMARY:Alex Da Corte: Ear Worm (A captivating mix of exhibitions that merge interdisciplinary art\, storytelling\, and social commentary)
DESCRIPTION:Bring your curiosity – this season promises a captivating mix of exhibitions that merge interdisciplinary art\, storytelling\, and social commentary. Awaiting visitors on MOCA’s second floor is a dreamlike environment envisioned by Venezuelan American artist Alex Da Corte. Vivid and surreal\, Da Corte’s art is culled from popular culture\, sexuality\, violence\, cinema\, children’s literature\, and art and design history\, lending his work a certain familiarity. Within his wild imagination\, however\, popular symbols are stretched\, shrunken\, and softened\, opening new ways of interpreting them and their cultural significance. \n  \nAwaiting visitors on Floor 2 is a dreamlike environment envisioned by Venezuelan American artist Alex Da Corte. Vivid and surreal\, Da Corte’s work draws from areas of popular culture\, sexuality\, violence\, cinema\, children’s literature\, and art and design history. His work feels familiar\, yet popular symbols are stretched\, shrunken\, and softened\, inviting us to see things we recognize in new ways and re-evaluate their cultural significance. \nMoving image works are often at the centre of Da Corte’s installations. Playing both director and leading actor in his sleekly executed films\, the artist morphs into his subjects\, fashioning himself into characters like Mister Rogers\, Sleeping Beauty\, Marcel Duchamp\, and the Wicked Witch of the West. By becoming the characters who taught us right from wrong or good from evil\, Da Corte challenges us to rethink the stories and protagonists we love or despise. \nFor MOCA\, Da Corte has reimagined his 2018 film Rubber Pencil Devil across several large-scale multicolor rear-projection cubes. This immersive work appears alongside the Mouse Museum (Van Gogh Ear)\, a newly realized work and intimate experience that invites viewers into Da Corte’s wildly creative mind. The interior of the structure is dark\, with an illuminated vitrine spanning the walls like a film strip. It’s “life as a moving image\,” Da Corte notes. \n  \nSchedule:\nEvery Wednesday\, 11:00 pm – 6:00 am\nEvery Thursday\, 11:00 pm – 6:00 am\nEvery Friday\, 11:00 pm – 6:00 am\nEvery Saturday\, 11:00 pm – 6:00 am\nEvery Sunday\, 11:00 pm – 6:00 am

SUMMARY:Hike Haliburton Festival
DESCRIPTION:Popularly known as Haliburton Highlands\, the county of Haliburton\, comprised of Algonquin Highlands\, Dysart et al\, Highlands East\, and Minden Hills\, is an extremely popular destination to enjoy the fall season with tree canopy ranging from deep green to soft hues of yellow and gold to bright reds depending on the time and place (type of trees present) of your visit. \nWhile hot\, warm summers will lead to fall colors appearing later in the season (well into October)\, cooler summers will see fall colors peaking much before Thanksgiving weekend. \nThe fall colors that you see will also vary depending on the tree. Maple trees turn auburn because their leaves are rich in anthocyanins\, a compound responsible for the glorious hues of red color. Poplar\, Birch and Tamarack (larch) trees have carotenoids and xanthophylls\, resulting in yellow\, gold and orange leaf color hues. \n\nFall in Love With Maple: Taste & Hike Through Brilliant Colors of Fall at Ontario Maple Farms\n\nAround the fourth weekend of September\, Haliburton Tourism organizes a hiking festival (2023 – September 21 to 24). Hike Haliburton Festival is Canada’s largest hiking festival and includes guided hikes and various Fall themed experiences. \nWhile you have to register for the guided hikes\, you can always head to Haliburton anytime from mid-September to late October/early November to enjoy nature during the Fall season. \n  \nAs of March 2024\, the price of the ticket is not yet available.
