dilate \Di*late"\, v. i. 1. To grow wide; to expand; to swell or extend in all directions.

dilateworld is celebrating the many new artists of film, theater and new media who dare to use their work to "think outside of the box". Over three nights in downtown Manhattan, we will present the First Annual dilateworld Multimedia Fest, an event designed to showcase those artists who are actively disspelling stereotypes about women, people of color and gays and lesbians through their chosen creative medium. Q & A with all presenting artists will follow each night’s event, with an opportunity afterwards to meet, greet, drink, dance and collaborate!
