🍭Dandy Candy: A High Fructose Duet 🍭
Commanding respect by curating effortless street style has long been a subtle and complex method of self-expression and social protest. Inspired by Black Dandy fashion and culture, this duet explores the ability of style to communicate, elevate, and celebrate the sanctity of black excellence.

Intiman Emerging Artist Program (IEAP):

For the fourth year, Intiman is proud to produce the Intiman Emerging Artists Program (IEAP), a no-cost-to-participant program that brings a cohort of diverse local artists together for 6 weeks of professional training and development that prepares them to work professionally in the region as artist advocates. The program culminates in an exciting Showcase Production comprised of original, solo-shows for the Seattle arts community. Five actors from the cohort will present a preview of their work in an evening of intersectional storytelling.
Participating Artists:
Adrian Kljucec (he/him, they/them)
Neve Mazique-Bianco (they/them)
Jennifer Kim (she/her)
Marquis Hill (he/him)
Laurie Lynch (she/her, they/them)

MISSION
festival:festival is a presenting platform focusing on Seattle artists and practices that engage with intersectional structures and identities.

VISION
Our mission is to create vibrant spaces through creative frameworks of empowerment, healing, and intentionality with the goal of building a sustainable and accessible arts community.

STRATEGY
festival:festival brings together and celebrates live music, performance, theatre, dance, visual arts, panel discussions, workshops, and other creative presentations removing the barriers that often separate the arts into genre-specific venues and programming.

EQUITY
Artists and cultural workers produce vital cultural services with reduced or even no financial support. Seattle, as one of the fastest growing cities in the United States, perpetuates an ever-growing endemic of economic inequality. The burden falls disproportionately on historically exploited communities. At festival:festival, we are dedicated to presenting, supporting, and investing in artists and cultural workers from these communities.
