Introducing vendor and visual artist Faith Mumba!
Faith Mumba is a second-year social sciences student at the University of Ottawa, studying sociology with a minor in conflict studies and human rights. Originally from Zambia in the southern part of Africa, Faith is a woman of many passions. One of those passions is a passion for art. Faith is a self-taught artist who discovered art at a very young age. Now she uses painting as her version of storytelling. While colors are her words, every piece she creates comes with a story. And through the use of vibrant colors that catch the eye, Faith’s focus is to create art that inspires, empowers and illuminates positivity into the lives of those who experience her art.

Introducing .cardot !

“I’m Anais Cardot, I’m 19 and i'm in an environmental studies program at OttawaU.
I’ve been singing since i was a child, probably when I was 2 : I learned a lot from my father who was a musician. I grew up listening to jazz, soul, rhythm and blues, rock. Music is a way to express myself easily.

I only really started to get into music when I was fourteen : like singing in front of people, learning instruments like piano, doing covers on internet. I also write songs that I usually put on youtube or streaming platforms : Just like my recent Ep Woolgathering”

See her incredible performance this SATURDAY! Ticket link in bio

Introducing

King Kimbit is an internationally-acclaimed Hip-Hop artist with a focus on the literary sense, interested in telling stories that are authentic to her experiences and identities. Her poetic work details the realities of her upbringing as the daughter of Vietnamese immigrants, the truths of her social vantage point as a young racialized womxn, and her stance on social issues regarding racism, de/colonization, and gender inequality.

Since being crowned Urban Legends Poetry Slam Champion in 2012, King has been sharing love and light through her poetry and music across Canada, the US, and more recently in Jamaica, where she worked in part on her debut album of poetry and musical arrangements entitled "Life Lessos Poetically". King currently coordinates Urban Legends’ Youth Speak! writing and performance workshops for teens and is also 1/3 of the founding force of Cap City Cyphers, a space for rappers across the city to unite and celebrate love and unity through Hip-Hop.
