Imagine Online Arts Festival: Day 4 - East Meets West

Iranian

The Isabel Bader Centre for the Performing Arts asked itself, ā€œWhat CAN we do that would amplify the voices and creativity of artists, students, creators, and educators in a rapidly-evolving multi-platform world?ā€ Supported through the Ballytobin Foundation, the Isabel created its new IMAGINE Project Creation @ the Isabel program that supported Kingston artists and beyond in their creation-based artist and creator residencies, online arts education initiatives, film creation, audio recording creation, and high-fidelity streaming.

Join us tonight for a celebration of the meeting of cultures!
