Art in the Open: Experiments in Motion

Art in the Open Presents: Care—a 2025 celebration of art and community, happening this month at locations throughout downtown Charlottetown.

This year’s theme, “care,” reflects a renewed focus on connection and community following a strategic reset. Artists were invited to submit projects exploring what care means and how it shapes lives and spaces. Festival-goers can expect thought-provoking installations, performances, and participatory experiences that examine the politics, poetics, and possibilities of care in everyday life.

At Tivoli Cinema on August 21 at 6 pm, Experiments in Motion—a screening of experimental video curated by Millefiore Clarkes—will take place in partnership with the venue. The screening features works by Chanel Briggs, Millefiore Clarkes, Jen McGowan, Jools Annie, Mamie Bell, shalan joudry, Dawn George, Laurel Lawrence, Phillip Mercier, Hans Samuelson, and Lesley McCubbin. Reservations are recommended.
