About
A public art installation project newly expanded for Culture Days 2022, PROJECT JAZZ features ten projected onscreen moving images, brought to life by the innovative and creative energy of jazz. New visuals from filmmakers Freya Björg Olafson, Ervin Chartrand, Leigh Lugosi, Jason Wilkins + Scott Hadaller, and Joel Penner - inspired by music from Will Bonness, Raine Hamilton, Jon Gordon, Apollo Suns, and Onna Lou - join visuals by Leslie Supnet, Mike Maryniuk, and Hugh Conacher based on music from Derrick Gardner, Jocelyn Gould, Richard Moody, and Casati.
PROJECT JAZZ uses public outdoor spaces in Winnipeg's historic Exchange District as projection surfaces, creating an immersive multimedia experience. Centred primarily around Old Market Square, this installation is free to experience as part of Culture Days programming from 7:30pm until 11pm on Friday, October 7 and Saturday, October 8.
