Presenting both established and new-on-the-scene artists, and a wide variety of styles, making the festival popular with everyone, in a vibrant atmosphere.
For the 2023 Festival, we selected E X U B E R A N C E as a theme to remind us that we are strong, and capable, and creative, and daring, and that we do have a good chance of doing something new and important, with the anticipation of the joy it could bring.
Sustained by passion and pleasure, EXUBERANCE is the force that squashes the question "is it worth doing it?"
EXUBERANCE holds an excitement that cannot be bought, and it hardly fades with the years!
They can remind us that in spite of varying beliefs, identities, and differences, we have the choice to work together, to collaborate, to be inclusive instead of exclusive.
New perspectives, understanding through the eyes of others, seeing and crossing boundaries.
We can remain independent while offering to or receiving from uncommon sources.
To move to action CREATIVELY, to fuel that wonderful essence that is in all of us!
A thought, an action, small or large, can produce amazing results.
It is not necessarily the big drastic events that spark actions of consequences. Often inspiration comes from simple acts, not always easy, but simple acts done by anyone, you, me, us, here, today.
Inspiration propels a person from apathy to possibility, and can transform the way we perceive our own capabilities.
