Following last year's hugely successful start, this five-day immersive event is on a mission in 2017. Spotlighting creative and innovative cultures that are coursing through the street-lined waterfront of St. Petersburg, Et Cultura invites the world to inspire, collaborate, and discover. The goal is to foster conversations with audiences, the community and the contributing artists while providing a supportive environment for learning through film, music, art, and Interactive sessions. Et Cultura is creating a signature event that will encourage new avenues for innovative thinking, new collaborations and unique experiences - to make an indelible mark in the minds of all who come to see what Et Cultura and St. Petersburg is all about.
The lineup is not to be missed- artists confirmed so far include Son Volt, Slowdive, Waxahatchee, The Budos Band, with more to be announced soon.
EtC Interactive has partnered with the Open Partnership
Education Network (OPEN) to design a series of Themed interactive experiences that bring next level thought leaders and nationally recognized speakers to the festival. These Themed events are the launching point for year around OPEN events and discussions in St. Petersburg that will engage, entertain, spur discussion and create an opportunity for fresh ideas, collaboration and action.
EtC MUSIC rings out from several of St Pete's Musical Landmarks including Jannus Live,
The State Theatre and bars/music venues throughout downtown and up Central Ave with a combination of national, regional and local music touching almost every music genre over the 5 day event!
EtC FILM is a chance to discover new people, places and ideas brought to life by the imagination and dedication of the independent filmmakers. Programmed with growing global obsession with short films and documentaries in mind, our festival is designed to take you on a journey while creating an inclusive environment where filmmakers and audiences can come together during post film discussions and Q&A sessions.
EtC ART pop ups of varying mediums including
Projections Mapping, Photography, Graphic Arts and more are curated by St. Petersburg Arts and Culture businesses and feature not only local artists, but artists from across the country. The Pop Up Makers Market anchors the weekend events and showcases the local, regional and even national makers selling handmade, vintage and curated wares.
