Partnering for Change: Learning Outwards from Jazz and Improvisation

What can creative partnerships teach us about collaboration across sectors and genres? How have musical partnerships contributed to movements for social justice? What are the ways in which people and organizations learn, grow, and change through partnerships? The Guelph Jazz Festival Colloquium features panel discussions, performances, multi-media presentations, interviews, and workshops to foster a spirit of collaborative, boundary-defying inquiry and dialogue. This year, the Colloquium will explore partnerships as models for social mobilization, and is dedicated to musicians and improvisers who have engaged in community collaborations and social movements.
