BPM x WAG-Qaumajuq
Adiyo, DXXN, DJ Saint
Manitoba Music X WAG-Qaumajuq are celebrating Black music makers with a series of free concerts and mixers in the iconic gallery space.
November 21 performances by Adiyo, DXXN, DJ Saint! The intimate setting allows the artists to express themselves through stripped-down, visceral performances that address identity and community, and celebrate the African Diaspora.
Join us for a mixer throughout the night for Black music makers as well as local music companies, labels, venues, and festivals looking to make deeper connections with the Black music community in Manitoba.
Meetups for artists and music entrepreneurs are core to BPM’s community-building focus, offering an opportunity to share ideas, professional needs, and barriers, and make vital career connections.
BPM is made possible by the financial support of FACTOR, the Government of Canada and Canada’s private radio broadcasters, the Manitoba Government, and Manitoba Film & Music.
Launched in February 2021 and facilitated by Tomiwa Omolayo, BPM | Black Professionals in Music is a program via Manitoba Music that supports Black music professionals in Manitoba.
BPM presents quarterly mixers for participants to meet and build their community and networks, followed by live performances, as well as other programming throughout the year.
Participants can bring ideas, share their professional needs and barriers, and influence the future direction of the program. To get involved, please email [email protected]. Participants must be residents of Manitoba and identify as Black musicians or music industry professionals.
