SHORE TIME SEPTEMBER 26 – 29 2024

FOGO ISLAND NEWFOUNDLAND 

PRESENTED BY FOGO ISLAND ARTS

REGISTRATION FOR EVENTS WILL OPEN JULY 22, 2024

Shore Time is a biannual gathering celebrating the intersection of art, economy, ecology, and food. The artist led program explores the importance of place, the challenges faced by remote and coastal communities, and the pivotal role of artists in imagining a sustainable future.

Fogo Island Arts’ international residency program believes that artists are visionaries with a unique capacity to reveal and respond to the complexities of our time. In coming together on an island off an island in the North Atlantic, we hope to foster a shared sense of belonging.
