Terra Firma Festival

Produced by Yoan Mastagarkov and Olivia Seward

ter·ra fir·ma | /ˌterə ˈfərmə/

noun | dry land; the ground as distinct from the sea or air.

Through the two past years, we have all had to redefine what our solid ground is. The Terra Firma Festival will examine, and delve into, the renegotiation of our interpersonal and ecological roots.

The Terra Firma Festival is a platform for students at The Creative School to expand, connect, and refine their multidisciplinary skills; then present their work to the arts industry and broader community.

An arts hub for creators and innovators within the creative school, Terra Firma festival encourages students to explore their creatives ventures, ideas, and projects that embrace themes of new roots and growth in a distinct period of change. Featuring the work of artists within the creative school, Terra Firma fosters and supports a new generation of creators and artists as they practice their work with the support of their community.

Note: Accessibility guides are available as well as sensory and content warnings for each show within the festival.
