Nomadisms Dance Party

This faculty- and participant-led event brings together films, performances, and DJ sets to explore nightlife as a space of community building.

Through nightclubbing, boundaries dissolve and the club emerges as an open site of freedom, encounter, and collective expression: bodies gather, rhythms connect, and community is forged in the dark.

The event stems from Nomadisms, a project-based residency that provides mentorship and studio time to visual artists working in a wide range of possible mediums, including ceramics, digital media, painting, performance art, and sculpture.

The residency invites artists to engage with the theme of nomadism as both a critical and aesthetic framework. Across their collaborations and creations, participants approach nomadism as a site of inquiry and a form of attentiveness to the earth.

Visual Arts is supported by Fondation DRG and the Gail and Stephen A. Jarislowsky Outstanding Artist Program.
