2023’s Celebration on Market Street

PAL Toronto's 30th Anniversary and COMMFFEST’s 18th Anniversary was a huge success! In addition to honoured guests Mayor Olivia Chow, MPP Kristyn Wong-Tam, and Councillor Chris Moise, the street was jumping with live music, neighbourhood friends, industry supporters, and the perfect weather added just the right touch to the festivities.

As a long-time PAL resident, I’ve enjoyed the good fortune of living here and being able to create a community partner called the Community Film & Arts Festival (Commffest). Many PAL residents have enjoyed participating in creating film screenings, art shows, concerts, workshops and conferences not only for our neighbourhood but others as well.
