Revisit Highlights from Big Ears 2017

Oxford American declared Big Ears “one of the most quietly earth-shattering, subtly luminous festivals the world over.” From 100+ spellbinding performances to rare film screenings, artist discussions to explorations of poetry and literature, art exhibitions to secret shows and pop-ups, Big Ears 2017 was filled to the brim with unique experiences. Revisit highlights from the 2017 festival here, and join us in the spring of 2018 for another boundary-erasing cultural adventure in downtown Knoxville.
