I'll be there on Saturday:
Trinity Centre, Bristol UK - Art of Resistance presents 'The Last Frontier Festival' - 5 March 2022
The Final Frontier Festival
The iconic Bristol Bear will be displayed as part of an exhibition showcasing the history of creative activism in Bristol across the weekend.
Exhibition open from 12.30pm Saturday and 10.30am Sunday.
A series of inspiring talks have been programmed throughout the two days.
See below for more details.
Day 1: Art, Roots, Revolution
From reclaiming nature, the landscape and the body to building alternative communities, Bristol’s many protest movements are linked by a common thread. They aim to bring us back to the roots of what makes us human and connected. Across this day we explore the many ways in which creativity is central to protest and reconnection.
