Topic: Supporting Palestine: PACBI and other initiatives
Cost: Free
In English or French, depending on the participants
Welcome to all!
In the current context of genocide in Palestine and vivid discussions around artistic practices that benefit the State of Israel, several organizations (including Studio 303) have joined PACBI and the boycott of artistic and cultural products from the State of Israel. (See the official declaration of Studio 303)
This performative discussion will be a space for dialogue around these initiatives. We will explore the why and the how. We will discuss how they apply within our local contexts.
Performative Discussions do not include a designated moderator. The format is modeled on Lois Weavers’s Long Table, where participants may:
– Join the table to contribute to the conversation,
– Choose to sit in the outer ring as an observer
SPARK series takes place during the FTA/OFFTA, taking advantage of the large number of presenters already in town. Our goal is to get Studio 303’s associated artists known by them and to facilitate different moments of exchange where relational rather than transactional aspects are favored.
N.B : A photographer will be at the event to take pictures for our archives and annual report. If you do not wish to be photographed, please email us at info@studio303.ca or inform us on the day of the event.
This event is supported by Caisse Desjardins de la Culture
