FAVA owes a big debt of gratitude to Northern Gateway Films for their support with our Exhibition event. Their support in offering their technology, as well as the amazing staff to operate and set up the tech, made the event one for the ages. Thank you Northern Gateway Films!
That’s a wrap on Exhibition! Last night, the Takleef Ensemble put the bow on our three-day event. Thank you to everyone who came out for the performance and the open house, and to our performers, band, staff, crew and volunteers who made this event possible.
Day 2! Exhibition continued with a live taping of Cam Neufeld and the Gadjo Collective’s show “The Road to Django.”
Exhibition’s last day is upon us. Join us for our open house from 1-5, and a live taping of the Takleef Ensemble from 6:30-8:30pm.
