Join us in Halifax or online for our first event of the fall season!
At The Walrus Talks Reconnecting Arts and Culture, professionals from the fields of visual art, comedy, film and television, literature, theatre, and more come together to share how the pandemic has changed the way they view their sector,
the stories they tell, and the audiences who experience their work.
We asked Event Manager Emma Mackenzie Hillier to share why she's looking forward to this special event.
"Iβm so excited to start September with
The Walrus Talks Reconnecting Arts and Culture. The pandemic cut off access to many cultural experiences, and while the sector pivoted, thereβs no question that COVID-19βs impact on Canadian art and culture was profound. Weβve brought together an amazing line-up of speakers who will examine how the arts help build community, how commitments to create a more diverse sector are beginning to bear fruit, and what stories are resonating most strongly with audiences and artists alike."
