SUMMARY:Woezo Africa Cultural Festival
DESCRIPTION:We are back with the third installment of the Woezo Africa Cultural Festival (WACF)! The Woezo Africa Cultural Festival aims to share and educate the community at large on the level of artistry and innovation that exists within African culture and African Diasporic history through a series of interactive activities\, artisan demonstrations\, cultural performances and workshops that will be delivered virtually. \nOn August 26th and 27th\, participants can expect two days filled with African music and dance performances\, family-friendly arts and crafts workshops\, a bustling cultural fair\, an immersive visual art and jam session\, and a community-oriented networking mixer all held within the lovely atmosphere of Downtown Calgary. \nWe believe that African\, Caribbean and Black cultural practices have a place in the mainstream. We are driven by a desire to advocate for our unique art forms through broader community exposure to the rich\, dynamic\, and inviting cultures of peoples of African descent. The festival encourages the Calgary community to engage in events that challenge dominant culture and more accurately represents the diversity of the city\, and Canada as a whole. \nAll communities are welcome to join us for the WACF in learning\, participating in and viewing many creative mediums enriched with the history of African culture. Try something new\, or join it all – we are excited to share a piece of our culture with you! \nRegister at https://2022WACF.eventbrite.ca

SUMMARY:SELFIE CONCERT | Ivo Dimchev
DESCRIPTION:Ivo Dimchev (Bulgaria)\nSELFIE CONCERT\nFebruary 4 | 7:30 PM\n$25 GENERAL/$20 MEMBERS \nEvent location | MZD’s new space located at 9931 78 Ave NW\, Edmonton \n \nPlease note\, you must be an MZD Member to attend this event. The purchase of a general admission ticket includes an MZD Membership for the 22-23 Season! \n“Selfie is a choreography\, selfie is a sculpture\, selfie is a tragedy\, selfie is love. Selfie is less about me\, it’s more about us.” – Ivo Dimchev \nSelfie Concert is the most recent work of Ivo Dimchev and is part of a series of performances in which Dimchev investigates different ways of interacting with the audience. In P Project (2012)\, Dimchev paid the audience to perform with him on stage\, while in Facebook Theatre (2016) the performance was based on texts written by spectators on real time in social media\, which the author considers an endless source of content and interaction. \nA Selfie Concert suggests an altering of the relationship between the audience and the performer\, a different way of sharing. Selfie simply shows. It does not explain\, it is evidence. However\, the selfie is also a reason to be together\, to be close physically. Selfie is an instrument for making the monotonic dramaturgy of the concert more alive – and for breaking it.
