The Gathering Divergence Interdisciplinary Festival & Conference (GDMAF/C) is a festival and conference with a specific focus on Indigenous, racialized, deaf, disabled and mad, women and other historically – marginalized arts communities. Held over 3 days, GDMAF/C features performances, literary readings, visual arts exhibition, panels, workshops and creative investigations from diverse practices.

Geared towards meaningful conversations, professional development, sharing strategies, it encourages divergence across arts practices and collaboration. This year’s theme for The Gathering Divergence Multi-Arts Festival & Conference SPRING 2024 | Visioning Canada’s IBPOC Artistic Transformation: Navigating Beyond Precarity Towards Stability.

We facilitate
– an interactive space where arts organizations artists and attendees share
– dedicated to advancing, visual arts and performing arts , while advocating for pluralism in the arts
– dialogue on common interests, experienced and strategies towards a better more equitable and inclusive arts sector.

We believe
Systemic change is more effectively achieved through collective, creative action, and seeks to:
– create, support and learn through open-source resources and toolkits
– advance strategies to understand how we are influenced by issues of equity and digital technology in and out of
– amplify the artistic practices and administration of IBPOC individuals

We aspire?
We hope that everyone arrives at a better understanding of the many ways in which we support, create from and within the Arts sector as indigenous / ethno-racially identified artists with a pluralist lens.

Stay tuned for the full schedule and registration in the upcoming weeks!
