Balancing Acts7:
Declaring the Movement
November 27 to December 3
Stage Left Productions is proud to present Balancing Acts7, Calgary's annual disability arts festival and the longest-running festival of its kind in the world.Through Balancing Acts7, Stage Left hopes to significantly increase the presence of and appreciation for disability art and culture and, by so doing, declare the importance and necessity of this unique artistic movement in Canada.
The main goal of Balancing Acts7 is to “declare the movement” by presenting an array of work that represents the spectrum of art created by disabled artists; by presenting visual arts exhibits throughout Calgary’s public spaces to represent more artists and to develop new audiences; and by hosting lectures and debates on disability art and culture at local academic institutions.
The Balancing Acts7 schedule can be found here.
Stage Left Productions extends a generous Thank You to our Balancing Acts7 supporters and partners.
