VERONICA'S ROOM

Blackout could not deliver the STAND Festival without the support of its funders. We are thrilled to receive awards to accomplish this project and continue working towards presenting immigrant and refugee artists. This support truly makes a difference, and we are incredibly grateful!

​

STAND Festival is funded by:

​

  • Canadian Heritage

  • Canada Council for the Arts

  •  British Columbia Arts Council

  •  Metro Vancouver

  •  North Vancouver Recreation and Culture Commission

  • City of West Vancouver

In the spirit of storytelling, we pause to honour the ancient narratives of this land. We stand upon the traditional, ancestral, and unceded territories of the Skwxwú7mesh (Squamish) and Tsleil-Waututh Nations. 

Just as we celebrate the diverse voices of immigrant and refugee artists, we recognize the First Peoples who have woven this place's first and enduring tales. Their stories are a testament to resilience, creativity, and the power of community. As we come together from many corners of the world, may we always remember, respect, and learn from the stories that this land holds.
