🦉🗯️THE SLATE FESTIVAL APPLICATION DEADLINE HAS BEEN EXTENDED TO ‼️JUNE 15‼️

ANYONE can apply!!!

The Slate is a mixed arts festival run by the not-for-profit arts organization Half Blind Owl. There are many performances given on every day of the festival. Three fifteen minute excerpts of a new work-in-progress, followed by a 45 minute - hour long performance by the returning artist from the previous year. This year our featured artists are the band Almost Through April, who have continued developing their full-length album with us.

Our theme this year is HOPECORE. What are you getting ridiculously excited about in the face of adversity? How can you commit yourself to the making of a better future? What does a nerd look like when all the knowledge of the world is at our disposal? Dig deep, believe hard, and don’t give up.

Originally conceived to be a laboratory for the artist, The Slate is not for the finely tuned project (we love them though!) This festival is for redefining goals, and setting personal achievements that can be made along the way to the finalized product. We are developing process along with the work, and inviting Niagara audiences in to grow with you, and your art. After each performance there is a mandatory talk back for the artists to have dialogue with the audiences about their piece, learning how art holistically interacts with community.

If you’ve got something to share… SHARE!!!

🦉🗯️2 0 2 4 w a s e p i c ! ! !

how lucky we are to be here with you all!! Half Blind Owl is so grateful to all who supported us through this year and we can’t wait to continue this journey into 2025.

This was a year of firsts—our first fundraiser, first Slate Festival with a staged performance, first Toronto workshop performance! And all shared with you!

We can’t wait to share more firsts and continue our current shenanigans. We are filled with love and gratitude for those who believe in our work, as well as artists who are unafraid to share new work and audiences who engage in conversation with us.

Thank you all and cheers to 2025!! 🦉🥂
