One Wave Gathering: 2018

Pacific Peoples’ Partnership presents:

One Wave Gathering.

 

Pacific Peoples’ Partnership is proud to announce the eleventh annual One Wave Gathering, an international Pacific Indigenous arts celebration on Lekwungen territory. One Wave has celebrated international Pacific community, arts and culture in Victoria, British Columbia since 2008. This gathering is a unique opportunity for communities to meaningfully engage with local and international Indigenous artists, youth and culture, fostering an environment of solidarity and expression amongst Pacific peoples. Let’s come together in celebration of Pacific Indigenous communities, and in promoting the health of our shared ocean ecosystems. Also check out our Facebook page here!

September 1st — One Wave Exhibition

This year our opening ceremony will take place on September 1st at MediaNet’s Flux Gallery (821 Fort st.)  in the form of a digital art exhibition. Join us in honouring the legacy of the incredible gathering that took place last year for One Wave’s 10th anniversary. The gallery will feature video works and other media installations celebrating the historic One Wave Gathering anniversary as well as Pacific culture and history. Doors open at 4pm, with programs running from 5-9pm.

Also at the gallery will be screenings of the Vaka-Taumako Project We, the Voyagers, (Image left) followed by a discussion of the project with group representatives. Through this exhibition we hope to foster a space that welcomes dialogue, as well as celebrates Pacific culture. After the opening of the exhibition, the gallery space will be open from 12pm-5pm, Tuesday-Saturday, until September 15th.

 

 

September 13th—Self-Determination and Self-governance: An Australian perspective

On Thursday September 13th from 3:00-4:30 pm we are co-presenting ‘Self-Determination and Self-governance: An Australian perspective’  featuring Michelle Deshong, CEO of the Australian Indigenous Governance Institute, from the Australian National University.

A day full of Indigenous presentations, Pacific art and art vendors, NGO partners, and food centered around navigating our shared waters of the Pacific. On Saturday September 15th from 12pm-5pm.
