Talent Wanted…

1 Feb

Hey Everyone!

ACCO is currently recruiting talented performers for our upcoming Asian Indie Music Festival which will be held in early March (between Mar 3-5)!

What kind of performers are we looking for? Well, anything and everything, really! All types of artistic expression — whether you sing, dance rap, speak, act, play or entertain, are all welcome. Last year, our music festival featured talented performances by rock bands, a Broadway troupe, rapper, dance crew, live DJ and more!

The goal of this musical evening extravaganza is to promote and celebrate emerging talented, local Asian Canadian performers. We are also using this opportunity to raise funds for the Downtown Women’s Eastside Centre.

If you are interested, or know anyone who is interested, please contact Jung Ah Won at jungahwon@hotmail.com.
