About
Now in its fourth iteration, RUTAS is presented by Aluna Theatre in partnership with Native Earth Performing Arts.
Our festival venue is Artscape Daniels Spectrum, 585 Dundas St. East. We honour and acknowledge the ancestral caretakers of the land we gather on for RUTAS: the Haudenosaunee Confederacy, the Wendat and most recently the Mississauga of the New Credit First Nation who have a Treaty relationship with Canada.
Accessibility
Artscape Daniels Spectrum is an accessible facility, with barrier-free washrooms, an elevator, and braille signage throughout the building. Barrier-free access to the building is via the Dundas Street entrance. If you are planning a trip to RUTAS and have any questions about accessibility or would like our assistance, please contact Festival Producer Sue Balint. We’ll be happy to make any necessary arrangements to ensure that you have an enjoyable visit.
