Overview

Brisbane Experimental Art Festival was created in 2010 with the aim of celebrating and showcasing Brisbane's brilliant art scene. The fest was formerly know as Brisbane Emerging Art Festival, so it's smoothly switched a word but not a letter in the acronym. As well as presenting various art forms for the public to enjoy, BEAF is a way for artists to connect and create new practices.

Some featured artists include writer and academic Courtney Pedersen, whose work is concerned with the collision of personal and public worlds. Poetry is Dead will also be showcased. This is a collaboration between writer Josh Donella and musician Mike Wilmett. Festival goer's can also check out Rebecca Cunningham's art. She is a researcher, curator, project manager, sound and performance artist. There are lots more artists; check out BEAF's website for details.

Whether you're brimming with creative talent or just appreciate art in all of its forms, head along to this free event and support your local artistic community.
