Hello CANVAS fans!

Well - we've had a break for the summer and are now preparing to return to you refreshed and reinvigorated.

We've been working on one or two special things while we've been away - so here's an update on our upcoming 2009 events schedule.

We'll post further details when we have them - so keep watching this space!

Saturday August 22nd - Above the Beaten Track

CANVAS have been kindly invited to host a 2nd stage/"impromptu area" at Mellowtone's annual festival of music and visual art at the View Two Gallery Matthew Street.

The "area" will feature the usual CANVAS mix of Live Music, Films/Visuals, DJs and More - Details TBC.

September 23rd to 27th - AND Festival and Liverpool Kino Cabaret

Debuting northwest film festival Abandon Normal Devices have laid down the gauntlet to local Liverpool filmmakers - challenging them to get together and make a series of films over the week of the festival.

CANVAS are currently in talks with Liverpool Kino Cabaret to host the climactic screening of the films on Sunday 27th - Venue and event details TBC.
