“The SOAK Festival was a gathering of artists and community in a supportive setting. A chance to see what other local artists are interested in and creating. It was a diverse blend of performances and workshops, which felt very grassroots and authentic. I made new connections with people I didn’t know were here, and now have relationships with them. Also, I shared my own interests and creations with artists who had never seen my work before. I had a memorable and valuable experience at The SOAK Festival.”
