CARMINE: SOMETHING IS AWAKE

Price: $20 Regular | $18 Friends | $10 Students and Seniors
Tickets include Museum admission

Now in its third year, the Intercultural and Creative Music Fellowship is a project aimed at fostering a greater intercultural understanding of Muslim heritage in music and film while also helping emerging artists achieve greater professional experience. 

In the summer of 2023, nine Humber College students worked together for 14 weeks to form Carmine. They created and recorded five songs, two films, a physical zine, and a series of digital art as part of an album titled Something is Awake. Deeply inspired by the Museum's Rumi exhibition, this endeavour embarks on a soul-stirring exploration of timeless themes such as love, life, and death, delving into the heart of Sufism and the transformative power of our collective consciousness. Join us on September 17 for the official launch of Carmine.

This funding is open to all sectors and will build on applied research (AR) and strengthen our regional partnerships to respond to the health, economic and environmental crises brought about by the COVID-19 pandemic and climate change. College researchers will lead these multi-partnered initiatives in collaboration with the private sector, public sector, or not-for-profit organizations based in Canada, while encouraging partnerships with universities and other colleges.
