Crimson Cabaret; Celebrating Creative Women

Each year we look forward to showcasing everything from aerial performance and folk dance to comedy and bluegrass quartets. Diverse, multicultural, skilled and breathtaking - this event represents the wide spectrum of the Vancouver identity at its’ best. The show brings together acclaimed local artists and performers from each artistic genre for an evening of exhilarating and vibrant artistry. Since its inception in 2006, Crimson Cabaret has three main purposes; to raise much needed funds for the NSWC, create an opportunity to spread awareness about NSWC whilst fostering a space of community solidarity and connection, and finally, to showcase, acknowledge and invigorate interest in the artistic contributions and talents by women in our community.

In celebration of women’s contribution to the arts and honouring the importance of creative expression to our collective being we pride ourselves on bringing together artists, technicians, organizers, curators, promoters and activists all together on one stage for a common cause. These people include everyone volunteering, performing, sponsoring, donating, working and attending this event. We extend our gratitude to artists, sponsors, supporters and volunteers that make this event possible every year.  We look forward to it growing as community event!

As Laiwan; an Interdisciplinary Arts Program professor at Goddard College recently mentioned in a speech at a NSWC lecture series, “we are all creative beings and the immensely challenging times we currently live in – encourage us to wake up, become active and creative, and imagine change.”
