NEWARK ARTS FESTIVAL
Newark Arts Festival 2024: Radical Reimagining, October 9-13th
To find out more information on NAF 2024 visit: www.newarkartsfestival.com
Close your eyes and see a world where art, culture, and connectedness are the foundations of our systems, lifestyles, and beliefs. A world where creativity is at the center of everything we hold dear, informing and impacting all that we do and all that we are.
Let us deconstruct and rebuild a world where change is an intentional process, driving us to a more equitable and just society. Together, let’s skillfully craft our communities into enriching environments where all can flourish by relying on imaginative problem-solving, cultural strategy, and systemic transformation.
It is time to reimagine the ways in which we can live our lives: as connected beings, co-creating the world together while breathing hope into generations and celebrating the joys, journeys, and triumphs of our ancestors.
Open your eyes and step into a world where Radical Reimagining is the only way forward into the future we wish to see.
This year’s theme is:
RADICAL REIMAGINING
Radical Reimagining is the theme that resonates throughout the festival, with each day highlighting a different goal focused on manifesting our radical ideas into reality. From October 9th – 13th, visitors can experience and engage in a reimagination of the world where art is the essence of a life well-lived.
