The series of peace arts exchanges (workshops and performances) in the name of “IN&OUT Peace Arts Festival” (IOPAF) under the theme “ASEAN Cultural Exchange through Puppets and Folktales” took place for the first time from 14 to 21 October, 2018 in Hồ Chí Minh City, Vietnam. The other special edition, Mekong Peace Arts Exchange (MPAE), took place for the first time from 13 to 20 January, 2019 in Mekong Delta, Vietnam.
Each troupe is expected to perform daily at least one show of no more than 30 minutes including demonstration and workshop for the participants, audiences and local community during the festival and the maximum length for each performance in 30min. There is no restriction in the languages, and the performances are well-designed to be both acceptable and appreciable for mass audience, especially to children.
The event is expected to be an annual activity since 2018 for the purpose of enriching the local ecosystem of community arts with participation of international artists. In the first edition, the festival attracted about 4000 participants for the total of 15 workshops and 21 performances in all venues, from which some newly established local troupes will be introduced to public in the next festival.
Local children, youth and families will have an opportunity to experience and learn about art and culture, both traditional and contemporary, from ASEAN and international troupes to local puppeteers and storytellers.
