It was all smiles and good-cheer at the Collective's annual Holiday Festival again this year. With gentle snow falling, and the scent of hot apple cider hanging thick in the air, friends in Toronto's vast and diverse disability community gathered at Wychwood Barns to share best wishes and do their holiday shopping.
In today's episode, we're highlighting the sounds of the festival, with musical performances by the McGregor Carollers, Gabriel Kerekes and the All Angels Jazz Band, the Epic Choir, Elisabeth Dorian, and Elsa and Anna from Frozen who performed in English and ASL.
Then host JJ Hunt shares a description-rich holiday story, written for the festival walking tour.
