Is it a powerpoint party? An artist mixer? A lesson in how to make the perfect martini? Class is in session at our Season Launch Party!
Get to know our 2026 Found Festival artists, chat with RISER participants, and learn about our 2026-2027 Prairie Mainstage series! You’ll hear about the boundary-pushing shows we’ve got coming up and get a peek behind the curtain at what’s on the minds of Common Ground staff and artists.
- April 30th, 6:00pm at the Edmonton Public Library – Strathcona Branch Program Room
- Season, Found, and RISER artists will share an introduction to their work AND their special fascinations via powerpoint!
Free to attend, all are welcome! RSVP in advance to guarantee your spot. As a bonus, we will be sending out a sneak peek to all RSVPs… 👀
