Kingston, Ontario
Kingston 2000:
First Night is a community-oriented, non-alcohol New Year's Eve celebration of
the arts. It was founded in Boston in 1976, initiated by a group of civic-minded
artists as an alternative form of community ritual to bring that city's
neighbourhoods together to welcome the New Year. Boston's experience inspired
cities across North America to start their own celebrations. First Night is a
modern recreation of ancient traditions of mid-winter celebrations, and as it
spreads across North America it seems to be serving a unique role in a culture
"starved for ritual".
First Night now spans 35 states with 146 American cities
involved, and in Canada, four provinces with 15 Canadian cities. Edmonton,
Alberta has the distinction of being one of the biggest First Night celebrations
in all of North America!
Admission to First Night events is by purchase of a button, set
at a modest cost, usually under ten dollars. The design of the buttons is an
artistic endeavour in itself, providing an opportunity to showcase a local
artist. Buttons are sold throughout the community leading up to and including
