International Flamenco Day - Celebration of CommunityThis evening is all about celebrating International Flamenco Day while we raise funds for local flamenco guitarist, Gareth Owen.
Gareth is the backbone of many of Flamenco de la Isla Society’s productions, and he is a popular guitarist for flamenco events in both Victoria and Vancouver. Gareth is a masterful guitarist who has dedicated his life to this dynamic and complex art form. He has proven his commitment to our flamenco communities, and now is our chance to support him!
Gareth has recently won a BC Arts Project Grant for phase 1 of his research, creation and exploration of flamenco “toque” (guitar). Gareth plans to travel to Andalucia, Spain, where he will meet with other professional flamenco artists, gain connections to support his work, and develop even more creative energy that will surely benefit our whole community.
We invite you to come and support Gareth, along with many other local talented artists, as they showcase the passion of flamenco. Please come and enjoy live music, dance, and a colourful fashion show (with a sneak peek of costumes to be sold at an upcoming Flamenco Fashion Pop-up), and check out many other silent auction items including a locally made flamenco guitar ~ all in celebration of community.
Please note there is no food service at this event. Food can be purchased from outside vendors and brought into the venue to enjoy with the show.
