This year, we have nine participating locations: Frontenac Apartments, First Baptist Church, Regina Public Library – Central Branch, Knox-Metropolitan United Church, Donahue Building, St. Paul’s Cathedral, Leader Building, Victoria Park Building – Copper Kettle, and Hotel Saskatchewan. We hope to see you there!
