PuSh Festival and Talking Stick Festival re-launch the PuSh Industry Series through an Indigenous lens from January 29 – February 5, 2023. Register today!

A cornerstone of the PuSh Festival for years, the Industry Series is back, and in-person! After two years of digital convening, organizers are excited to welcome local, national, and international performing arts communities back to the 2023 Festival. This week-long series is an opportunity for professional artists, presenters, cultural workers, and arts enthusiasts alike to connect with one another, engage in thought-provoking discussion, and experience transformative performances together.

This year, in partnership with Talking Stick, expect Industry Series programming devised from an Indigenous lens: one that aims to bring attendees back into community with each other after so much time apart. Programming will include workshops, artist talks, curated pitch sessions, walks with local artists, and social events.

Highlights include:

Sunday, January 29 – Indigenous Music Circle: Forging New Trails – 6:00 – 7:30 pm
Monday, January 30 – Protocols and Welcome – 10 am – 12:30 pm
Tuesday, January 31 – Indigenous Presenting + Touring – 10:00 am – 12:30 pm
Saturday, February 4 – Listening Circle – 10:00 am – 1:00 pm
