We aim to enhance the skills and opportunities for academics and professionals in creative industries through the development of a network and exchange program. By fostering collaborations between the Americas, Southern Africa & CPLP, we present Exchange initiatives alongside Artists in Residence and conferences, creating an annual meeting point for innovation and dialogue in both regions.
Originally created to celebrate Black History Month, the festival has evolved to foster a deeper understanding of the diverse cultural arts and identities in Hamilton. We recognize the various histories that shape the experiences of different community, arts and cultural groups in the area. Proudly, we are a BIPOC- Black, Indigenous, People of Colour - 75% Festival.
