About this Event
WHEN: Apr 3, 6PM doors, 7:30PM show
WHERE: Atrium at the BMO Theatre Centre
Produced by Brushing Hands Collective and Promethean Theatre
Inspired by the three fates of Greek mythology that weave the strings of destiny, FATES: a Multidisciplinary Art Show explores how fate is thrust upon us, and the lengths we go to to change our own fate. Weaving themes of luck, fortune, circumstance, superstition, narrative, and myth, this show features work from emerging artists of all disciplines.
We are excited to bring writers, poets, performers, musicians, and visual artists together into one space and celebrate and uplift emerging creatives in Vancouver!
This opening night event starts at 6pm, featuring paintings, drawings, zines and sculptures displayed in the BMO Theatre Centre Atrium. At 7:30 PM, we will have six short performances followed by mingling, drinks, and good times into the evening. There will also be merchandise for sale from our artists, and an interactive tarot reading theatre performance after 8:30pm.
Tickets are pay-what-you-can, with 20% of our proceeds being donated to the Pacific Association of First Nations Women, and the rest of the proceeds being split evenly and paid back to our artists.
