MayWorks call for artists

The MayWorks Festival of Working Class Culture is returning for 2004!

This festival is an opportunity for the labour movement, activists, and 
artists to celebrate working class culture.

Because cultural productions such as painting, theatre, music, photography, 
poster art, spoken word, sculpture, and clowning, are vital to our 
understanding of who we are and how we interpret the world around us, the 
MayWorks festival wants to show case artists, musicians and writers who 
help us celebrate the strength and diversity of the working class.

As part of this year’s MayWorks, we have space for art installations for 
the May Day weekend. As well, we are presenting a worker’s cabaret, a May 
Day central stage at Grandview Park, and an International Solidarity Café.

Send us submissions and help us build a festival with art that represents, 
encourages or documents worker’s lives, struggles and gains.

The deadline for submissions for art that will be installed for May 1st and 
May 2nd is April 15th.

The deadline for all other acts, that want to be in the festival guide, is 
April 1st. You can contact the MayWorks collective by e-mailing MayWorks at 
resist.ca or by calling 604-255-2765.
