Rhubarb! 47

I eat both, and maybe even a third — all at once. They mix inside of me, and I birth out a hybrid. Diverse, unnatural, impure, unlabeled, beautiful. I make new life with my cultural cannibalism. My creation-creature is a mix of all their original beauty and their primal beast.

Welcome to the Rhubarb! Festival 2026.

Rhubarb! is Buddies at its rawest: a hotbed of unruly creatives queering what it means to make and experience art. Canada’s longest-running genre-bending Live Art festival has brought you, every year, well-crafted chaos.

Ludmylla Reis returns for their second year as Festival Director and they present you a group of artists smashing unfit things together into… well… art.
