2020 to 2021: Moving the Malaysian Arts Forward

2020 has not been kind to our local arts industries. Most shows, festivals and exhibitions had to either close down completely, or experiment by going digital. For this final show of 2020, we try to take an optimistic tone, and discuss what artsmakers have learnt and how the industry can move forward into the new year. Joining us for the conversation are: Bilqis Hijjas, dance producer, Rimbun Dahan; Tan Cher Kian, producer, Instant Cafe Theatre Company; and, Ruby Subramaniam, visual artist & arts organiser.
