The festival runs from October 25 to November 5. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5103542\" data-originallang=\"en\">Heart of the City highlights the talents of our community through a wonderfully diverse range of multimedia art that connects and speaks to the diversity of life in the Downtown Eastside. This year's theme, \u201cHonouring Women of the Downtown Eastside\u201d, showcases the chamber opera piece <em>MISSING</em> and the sound installation <em>Summoning</em>. The theme is especially close to the hearts of our community, as we continue to fight for and stand in solidarity with families of the missing and murdered indigenous women and girls. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5103543\" data-originallang=\"en\">The festival offers over 100 events at over 50 venues in our community. Please come and be in awe of these beautiful, artistic expressions and talent in my community. </p>",
