2022 in Review
“Water is Memory” was the theme of 2022. While we explored what this theme meant to us, to the artists we collaborated with and to community members who participated in programming, memories, like bubbles of water, popped through the months and floated down the river of new connections.
In 2022,
We worked with 118 artists.
We organized 4 photo exhibitions viewed by 4,000+ people.
We produced 60 live performances in the park, attended by over 4700 Esplanadians.
We held 84 LAINI workshops participated by 69 girls and young women of The Esplanade.
We organized 203 workshops attended by 194 participants with over 500 participants.
