APS Bank powers KampuSajf 2024
APS Bank plc is proudly supporting KampuSajf, an arts festival organised by the Malta College of Arts, Sciences and Technology (MCAST) for the second consecutive year. The festival will take place from 23-24 August at the amphitheatre in Mosta, behind the MCAST Campus, and from 26-28 August at MCAST’s Paola Campus.
KampuSajf 2024 celebrates artistic diversity by showcasing local creative artists’ projects. This multidisciplinary performance platform prioritises indigenous artistic work in Malta, serving as an alternative platform for various art forms. The content has been thoughtfully curated by Stjanu Debono, the festival’s artistic director.
The programme of events includes:
• Dizzjunarju tal-Maħbubin: A multi-disciplinary project featuring Martina Georgina, Klonn and Hearts Beating in Time, written by Jien_a and published on Aphroconfuso.
• Teatru Malta Hit Parade: A music production by Teatru Malta with Albert Garzia Trio, Justin Galea and Charlotte Formosa, featuring Claire Tonna and Il-Lapes.
• Karmaġenn: A production blending music and theatre by Karmaġenn and Chewing Productions.
• Animation Showcase Malta: A film production showcasing short animated movies from Malta-based animators, including a selection of works of MCAST students following courses at the Institute for the Creative Arts (ICA).
• Malta’s Musical Heritage: A music performance by Mariele Zammit Kwartett, with Mariele Zammit on vocals, Warren Galea on guitar and Oliver Degabriele on bass.
Rachael Blackburn, head of Culture, commented: “We are delighted to once again support MCAST for their summer festival, celebrating the vibrant arts and culture scene in Malta. Supporting local artists is crucial to preserving and nurturing our cultural heritage, as their creative contributions help foster a sense of identity and community pride. By investing in local talent, we ensure the continuity of cultural practices that define who we are.”
