We’re happy to welcome 3 featured artists: Farida Amadou (Brussels), Myriam Gendron (Montreal), and Radwan Ghazi Moumneh (Montreal). Their presence is approached as an interactive exchange with Vancouver, as they meet with local audiences and artists.  

All three are also francophone, though this language is a different lived reality for each of them, and has a different place in their creative music: from Myriam Gendron’s re-imagining and transformation of traditional French songs, to Farida Amadou’s improvised and noise music, and to Radwan Ghazi Moumneh’s melding of buzuk (Lebanese lute) and Arabic modal singing with effects, electronics and synths.

Come celebrate the creativity our region hosts. Singer-songwriters, noise musicians, improvisers, visual artists, and audiences meet to share connections in friendly spaces.

The festival will highlight our local scene through new creations and collaborations, meetings across generations, and multidisciplinary performances. Please take some time to explore the wonderful list of artists who have accepted our invitation.

Unwritten Weekend wouldn’t exist without the generosity and steady commitment of our community partners to the arts scene: NOW Society, Alliance Française Vancouver, Red Gate, The Hargrove, Coastal Jazz, Dandelion Records, MENA Film Festival, Vancouver New Music, le Centre Culturel Francophone de Vancouver, and act art mgt.
