Swim Team (Film)

It encourages risk, questions, and creative exploration while insisting on accessibility, integrity, and professionalism.

New this year – we’re teaming up with an incredible group of arts organizations to bring you the SummerWorks Exchange, a new stream of the Festival that features artist workshops and professional development opportunities.
