Bridge Chicago: A Festival of Holes (2025)
An annual video, art, and literary celebration sponsored by the Bridge arts collective
The event is titled A Festival of Holes in honor of a similar hybrid arts event spearheaded by Stacey Hardy’s 2023 Bridge Books publication, An Archaeology of Holes. In Stacy’s own words, this festival aims to “celebrate the hole as a gathering point, that into which everything falls: black holes, boreholes, manholes, potholes, airholes, sinkholes, stink holes, wormholes, tone holes, keyhole, cunt holes, a-holes, mouth holes, hideyholes, holy holes, wholly holes, breath holes, holes in the head and in the body and in the earth, holes in humanity, holes as escape routes and connection points…a gap, a gape, a gasp, agape…” In the spirit of the original Festival of Holes, this event aims to unify artists from all-too-often separate disciplines, bringing them all into the same “hole,” so to speak.
