Just around the corner this August at the Enriched Bread Artist Studios... Our new project, funded by Ottawa 2017 Arts, Culture and Heritage Investment Program, featuring a variety of visual displays, immersive experiences, and an all-out celebration with cakes! Cakes relate to the bakery heritage of our building, the Standard Bread Company, and they are also universal symbols of celebration.
By popular demand one of the Cake Ladies will make an appearance for the opening ceremonies on August 17th! But don't miss images of my new cake performance and encaustic sculpture to be followed by a live show during the EBA Open Studio.
PROGRAM AND SCHEDULE
Thursday, August 17 from 7:30 - 9:00 p.m. - Opening remarks, cake cutting, performances, cake stories and celebration. Vernissage of “The Big Cake Projection” at 9:00 p.m.
THE BIG CAKE PROJECTION (9:00 - 11:00 p.m. nightly) from August 17 - 31
The east side of our building will feature a large-scale projection series based on the history and heritage of our building, and the theme of celebration with cakes. Well-known as the former Standard Bread Factory that was built in the “Roaring 1920’s”, the projection will feature archival imagery intertwined with inspired and artistic contemporary interpretations of cake that have been created by EBA artists.
