About

ARTIVISM x VAG | In conjunction with the annual Vancouver Outsider Arts Festival (Oct 14 – 16), our ARTIVISM Community Partner, the Vancouver Art Gallery, invites you to an online conversation about the festival, the artists it serves, the complex history of “Outsider Art” and its place within the Vancouver community.

Hosts Kristin Cheung, Executive Director of the Community Arts Council of Vancouver, and Shannon Goodman, Program Manager are joined by artists John Clinock, Amy J. Dyck and Charlie Sandeman who will share their experiences of being artists on the “outside” and how the Vancouver Outsider Arts Festival brings together the Vancouver community to challenge stereotypes about who and what counts in the art world.

Organizer

Vancouver Art Gallery

In March 2020, in response to the temporary closure of the exhibition spaces due to the global health pandemic, the Vancouver Art Gallery launched Art Connects, a new series of online gatherings that encourages dialogue and connection in the era of physical distancing.

In addition to the restoration of on-site programming, the Gallery continues to stream live and interactive conversations into your homes, featuring guests from local and international arts communities. Everyone is invited to join through the webinar platform, Zoom.
