We are happy to announce that The River Clyde Pageant is Prince Edward Island’s regional hub for the new, national Art for Social Change Network (ASCN), hosted by the International Centre of Art for Social Change. With hubs across Canada, ASCN is designed to connect and support hundreds of organizations and independent artists working in art for social change (ASC) and community-engaged arts (CEA).
ASCN has organized an online gathering , Art for Social Change NOW (ASC NOW), taking place Jan 25-27th.
Right now, in every corner of Canada, community-engaged artists and organizations are nurturing new forms of collaborative creation, dialogue, partnerships, and action for positive change. ASC NOW will explore important questions: Who is doing the work? What are the current struggles and innovative solutions? How can we and how do we address issues of equity and justice? How are we rising to the critical challenges happening in the community-engaged arts landscape today? Come celebrate the power of transformative change through the processes of participatory artmaking!
