SUMMARY:Guelph Jazz Festival 2023
DESCRIPTION:The 2023 Guelph Jazz Festival\, 14-17 September\, marks the 30th Anniversary year of the event\, three decades animating the city with world-class live music performances by artists from the regional\, national\, and international fields of creative improvised music. We are proud to announce the key elements of this special event’s programming. \nHighlights of the Ticketed Concert Series include Nicolas Caloia’s astounding Montreal-based 22-piece ensemble\, the Ratchet Orchestra (15 Sept)\, featuring some of Canada’s finest improvising musicians –– Lori Freedman\, Jean Derome\, Josh Zubot\, Tom Walsh\, to name a few –– interpreting Caloia’s inspired and wide-ranging book of compositions. The UK/Swedish/French quartet [Ahmed] (14 Sept) –– Pat Thomas\, Seymour Wright\, Joel Grip\, Antonin Gerbal –– will perform for the first time in North America. They employ the music and philosophy of the pioneering composer Ahmed Abdul-Malik as a lens through which to channel churning\, vertiginous group improvisations that are\, at once\, conceptually rich and utterly visceral. Vancouver clarinettist and composer François Houle leads his GENERA Sextet (16 Sept)\, an international assembly including Benoît Delbecq\, Marco von Orelli\, Harris Eisenstadt\, Michael Bates\, and Samuel Blaser. They will perform the In Memoriam suite\, dedicated to the memory of Ken Pickering\, the founding Artistic Director of the Vancouver International Jazz Festival\, and a special contributor to the field in Canada. \nVirtuoso New York pianist Cory Smythe (16 Sept) will employ a range of mysterious electro-acoustic interventions to augment the piano as he presents the latest of his deep\, set-length investigations of the enigmatic Jerome Kern/Otto Harbach standard\, “Smoke Gets in Your Eyes.” The Lina Allemano Four (14 Sept) features the superb Berlin/Toronto based trumpeter’s group\, with Brodie West\, Nick Fraser\, and Andrew Downing\, that has extended the sound of classic Ornette Coleman Quartets to something wider-ranging and truly contemporary over its two-decade lifespan. The Susanna Hood Trio (15 Sept) features its leader\, a singular singer/dancer from Montreal whose improvisations across these two disciplines are simply without peer. Her trio\, with pianist Tania Gill and saxophonist Kayla Milmine\, presents unPacked\, their stunning version of Packet\, a suite of songs by Steve Lacy setting emotionally packed feminist poems by Judith Malina. Vancouver violinist Josh Zubot leads his String Quintet (16 Sept)\, with Jesse Zubot\, Meredith Bates\, Peggy Lee\, and James Meager\, through his ingenious composing designed to activate the improvising resources of this superb West Coast band. \nLearn about all the Ticketed Concert Series Artists here and Festival Schedule here; more artists to be announced in the weeks to come. Tickets and passes for the 2023 Guelph Jazz Festival go on sale on 12 July; more information here.

SUMMARY:"dreamscapes" by Kira Alexanian at Wyndham’s 3rd Floor Gallery
DESCRIPTION:dreamscapes in Wyndham’s 3rd Floor Gallery in Guelph (125 Wyndham Street North\, Guelph ON)\n\nThe show will be on from September 5th to 30th and the opening reception is Thursday\, September 7th from 6-8pm. Light refreshments will be served.\n\nAbout the Show:\nIt is no surprise that the human experience is too often cruel. Just when your footing is found and you begin to take root\, an unexpected shift sends you flailing and face down in the bristly undergrowth.  Dreams are a welcome escape. The boundless and vibrant scenes of the mind’s eye are reminders of the importance of make-believe. In dreamscapes\, I make tangible the glimmering illustrations of my own inner fantasies. These works are formulated without physical reference matter. Instead\, I tap into my brain’s archive of idealistic environments\, with movements of the paintbrush gently urging me far into their otherworldly delights. Fine details and animated lines further reflect the swirling possibilities of a daydream – a place free of the strain of waking life.

SUMMARY:Colours of the Earth Workshop- HWHG
DESCRIPTION:Colours of the Earth Workshop with Danielle Petti (IN PERSON) \nSaturday August 12\, 2023 10:00-12:00 \nMake your own paint! HWHG artist instructor Danielle will walk you through her process of making sustainable art; from foraging tips and crushing rocks to mixing the perfect paint. Processing the pigments will be done together with Danielle’s tools\, alongside a brief history of earth pigments and an overview of sustainable art practices. This workshop is great for artists who want to have more of a connection to the materials they work with\, but also for non-artists who are curious about this prehistoric way of making paint. \nSuitable for teens and adults. Materials will be provided. \nEach participant gets a sample to take home.
