The 2015 Biennial of the Americas, an international festival of ideas, art, and culture will hold its opening week of events festival July 14-19 next year. With more than 20,000 participants who attended the innovative four-day program of events in 2013, the Biennial brought together more than 70 artists, speakers and international leaders from 20 countries to Denver.
“The third iteration of the Biennial will attract and engage dynamic thinkers from across the Americas through public festivals, world-class symposia, innovative workshops, clínicas, art exhibitions, and cultural programming,” said Erin Trapp, Biennial CEO/executive director. “All of our Biennial events leading up to the 2015 festival will help to build momentum, excitement and participation.”
Trapp, former deputy chief of staff and director of the Denver Office of Cultural Affairs during Gov. John Hickenlooper’s term as mayor, has expanded the Biennial team to include Lauren Wright, artistic director and curator; Meegan Moszynski, ideas director; Monica Kurtz, marketing director, and Marilyn Hernandez-Stopp, communications and community outreach coordinator.
The Biennial of the Americas provides an international platform for leaders in business, government, civil society and the arts to examine the significant issues impacting life in the Americas. The organization’s marquee event is an international festival of ideas, arts and culture hosted in Denver on alternating years.
