Acrpost: A Project of the Pacific Association of Artist Run Centres

Event Description

Welcome to the inaugural night of the Troublemaker's Cabaret: an evening of artistic performance, live music, community-building, and political rants. We are coming together to highlight some of the amazing work that is being done by amazing people here at home, as well as to forge new relationships amongst community organizers and activists.

Some of your local favourites, including the Whistling Kettle Improv Team, the Raging Grannies, Kevin Paul, Morgan Purvis, and many more will be hitting the stage along with our hosts Marika Albert and Shane Calder to bring you a variety show of activist-related delights.

The evening, of course, would not be complete without musical performances by The Tuesdays, Still Broke, DJ Fretwell, and the Art, Bobby, and Clinton Trio.

We'll also be featuring the amazing work of artist & author Franke James!

The evening begins at 7pm and goes until midnight.
