Running from 28 June - 28 July 2024, the inaugural Ruthin International Arts Festival is set to take place in the historic rural town of Ruthin in North Wales - a stunning, expertly curated new addition to the existing international art landscape, including work from acclaimed artists and poets, centred around the theme of ‘Elsewhere’.Directed by distinguished Beijing-based poet Yu Er, curated by Cheng Xi, and supported by Ruthin Global Arts and Education Foundation, this brand-new arts festival comprises a Seven Day Live Programme (28 June - 4 July) of breathtaking multidisciplinary art, film, poetry, exhibition, and performance-based work. This will be followed by weekly film screenings and panels, open mic performance nights, and workshops, all running locally until 28 July.
Hosted in and around historic Ruthin locations such as Ruthin Castle, the Ruthin International Arts Festival explores and conceptualises seven themes across seven days: Liveness, Intervention, Serendipity, Togetherness, Diaspora, Vision, and Good Night, followed afterwards by a 4 week series of weekly screenings, film panels, and local workshops.
#RIAF2024 emphasises site-specificity, experimentation, medium diversity, community symbiosis, ecology integration, and sustainable growth in contemporary art practice.
#RIAF2024 will be organised by Ruthin Global Arts and Education Foundation, directed by Yu Er, curated by Cheng Xi, and produced by Meier.
