Powell Street Festival Society’s ongoing Paueru Gai Dialogues continue online on October 16 at 1 pm.

With the theme Expanding Diasporic Imaginaries, this eighth installment features performance artist and scholar Ayumi Goto in conversation with Andrea Fatona, an independent curator and scholar; Peter Morin, an Artist, Curator, and Community Organizer; and Abedar Kamgari, an Artist, Curator, and Arts Worker.

Coming from diverse communities of culture, art, and activism, the panelists all share the profound capacity to move between multiple worlds and to create interlinkages so that others are invited to participate.

For the latest dialogue, conversations will weave between building Indigenous and non-Indigenous relations, the pleasures and gifts of engaging with unexpected others, and the prismatic scatter of diasporic states of affairs. Participants are welcome to engage with the invited speakers, to share their life experiences of bridging lives and communities.

Attendees will be invited into breakout groups to share their perspectives, then to reconvene to offer questions and debrief together.

This Online Zoom event is free, advance registration is required, here.
