About this Event
The Cosmic Northside - the Afrofuturistic Canadian Art Conference is a two-day gathering at the National Gallery of Canada in the nation's capital of Ottawa. The conference is taking place in service of championing Black creatives who have been pushing the imagination and representation of Blackness through the arts. The conference seeks to address the sentiment of what is next for the Black community after the UN International Decade for People of African Descent (2014-2028). Funded by the Department of Heritage and Culture with the Government of Canada, the conference will feature high-profile Afrofuturists Canadian creatives, engaging roundtable and panel discussions, interactive workshop sessions, dynamic musical performances, spectacular digital artwork displays, and numerous relationship-building opportunities. This conference will be a supernova for the Canadian art canon and will usher in a new frontier for the Black Arts Industry.
