Galerie du Nouvel-Ontario’s Sudbury Alternative Art Fair (FAAS) is returning for its seventh edition June 14-17.
This time, FAAS will celebrate the Donovan neighbourhood by creating in various vacant spaces, simulating places for exhibition, conversation, and sharing. As usual, the event is free and open to all.
The Donovan is home to many ethnocultural, marginalized groups, as well as a new wave of communities who have come to call it home.
With the theme of neighbourhood, it is a great opportunity to rally a community of proximity, to be in solidarity with the changes it is facing and to highlight its considerable contribution.
Inspired by the desire to create a place for discussion and exchange and to and to propose activities of popular reappropriation, this art fair aims to shed light on the logic of our urban and economic systems.
Every two years since 2008, la FAAS has celebrated a public space in the Nickel City’s downtown. Invited artists are challenged to complete new works over the course of the festival and according to each edition’s concept and theme.
