Momentum: A Free Three Day Arts & Musical Festival
Sojourner’s Truth Staff
The Toledo Arts
Commission’s 2018 Momentum Festival was held Thursday
September 13 to Saturday, September 15, encompassing
Promenade Park, as well as spaces linked to Imagination
Station. The free three-day festival, expanded this year,
featured new interactive art works by regional artists,
commissioned specifically for Momentum; Friday featured a
concert by Havana, Cuba-based Orquesta Akokan, performing
for the first time in Toledo and on Saturday the Toledo
Opera was on the stage performing Tan Dun’s “Water
Concerto.”
One local artist whose work
has been woven into the landscape of the Glass City is Yusuf
Lateef, who, in partnership with fellow artist Julia Labay
Darrah, presented an interactive piece.
