Join three emerging Victoria artists and enjoy a rooftop concert during the free Create Victoria Mixer + Artist Talk, from 5 to 9 p.m. today (Aug. 21) at the Bastion Square Parkade.
For the first hour, local artists Fern Long, Joshua Ngenda and Austin Clay Willis will take part in a panel discussion about their experiences creating public art. The talk will be moderated by local artist Amanda Farrell-Low. Participants will have the opportunity to network and speak with the City’s Arts, Culture and Events staff about future public art opportunities.
