Karyn Ann Live at the Sou’wester
FREE AND OPEN TO THE PUBLIC
Her songwriting and performance chops have earned spots at the Red Ants Pants Music Festival, Tucson Folk Festival and most recently honorable mention by the Rocky Mountain Folks Festival.
Her latest single “8 Hours” reveals Ann’s prowess as a singer-songwriter but also demonstrates her ability to turn personal tribulation into profound artistic expression. More at www.karynann.com
Each March The Sou’wester is given over to 30+ artists and art collectives for a week of residency work culminating in a public exhibition of performances, installations & studio tours. Arts Week highlights the creative process and experiential nature of the Sou’wester Artist Residency Program. Arts week 2024 hopes to create communal movement from the confluence of individual flow states. Through each of our visions, we come together to share in making something bigger. How does this energized space wash back on us? How does it inspire us, heal us, move us towards a sense of belonging? What do we take back from this exchange to seed our own revisioning?
Schedule and itinerary TBA
