This is Nowhere was funded through the Canada Council for the Arts’ New Chapter program. 


​Downtown Halifax was the stage. Guided by a phone app, 850 participants searched the city of the present, considering its past and witnessing a series of encounters that evoke the city of tomorrow. In the process, they contributed to a New Blueprint for the city’s future, unveiled at the culmination of the search.
