FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: Twillingate, Newfoundland & Labrador July 20, 2020 VIRTUAL FESTIVAL DATES ANNOUNCED The Unscripted Twillingate – Digital Arts Festival, hosted in Twillingate, Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada, is a four-day festival that celebrates all things digital (photography, filmmaking, music, mixed media, etc.) combined with adventure, entertainment and food for an experience to remember. This year will be our sixth festival and a change from our usual format. Grow Twillingate Inc. is pleased to announce that this year’s Unscripted Festival will be moving forward with a new format for COVID-19: all of our workshops and events will be virtual! The festival will be held for four days, from Thursday, September 17 to Sunday, September 20, 2020 inclusive. The Unscripted Festival will be using a mixture of live and recorded events across multiple platforms (such as Zoom and Facebook Live) to offer the same programming as previous years. Workshops will be presented as online master classes using Zoom. Participants in the festival will be able to access content and enjoy the inspiring environment of Twillingate right from their home. “Twillingate’s breathtaking beauty is an inspiration for digital creativity. The fact that we can offer a ‘digital digital arts festival’ this year is a natural way for the Unscripted Twillingate Digital Arts Festival to pivot during a global pandemic, sharing the magic of Twillingate with the world on online platforms,” says Deborah Bourden, chair of this year’s festival committee.
