Lawnya Vawnya: An Exposition of Independent Art & Culture returns to downtown St. John’s for the eighth edition of their spring festival from May 23-26, 2018.

LV unveiled their programming this morning, and the lineup is another diverse knockout of unique Canadian artists. In addition to the 20+ confirmed performers, Lawnya Vawnya will continue their tradition of hosting a slew of engaging events including panels, talks, screenings, readings, pop-ups and music crawls.

We are especially excited to announce Secret East will be partnering with Lawnya Vawnya once again to host a 2018 showcase, and we’ll have more information on that in the coming weeks.

In the meantime, you can familiarize yourself with the LV class of 2018 by checking out our complete video guide to Lawnya Vawnya 8’s lineup reveal:
