Community Moves JUNE 9TH Event Schedule
10:00 AM - Community Warm-Up - Come get ready for the day and warm up with us!
10:30 AM - Performance - Re:Semblance by Jenn Edwards - Join us along the trails of the park for a performance featuring youth and professional performers.
Re:semblance is an immersive exploration of human contact in an era of isolation. A series of bodies haunted by lost futures. A portal into liminal worlds entwining the domestic and the natural. In this dream-like coalescence of dance, poetry, spatial soundscape, and digital interaction, audiences are guided as expressive bodies through green micro-stages to confront displacement in its various forms and scales on the earth.
11:30 AM - 12:00 PM - Performance - Conflux by Jenna Magrath - Join us down by the river for a performance of Conflux.
Conflux is a site-specific physical exploration delving into the intricate interplay between individuals, their surroundings, and the ever-evolving connections and their enduring effects. Through improvisation, the dancers draw inspiration from and embody the physical environment, exploring its profound impact on the self, the collective movement, the audience, and the shared space. In a world where we are often disconnected from our physical bodies, surroundings, and fellow beings, Conflux investigates the discovery of (dis)connections between, self, others, and the environment, creating a journey that unfolds through movement, presence, connection, and rediscovery.
12:30 PM - 1:30 PM - JAM:Reified created by Sloane Zogas and facilitated by Derek Carlson - Community Art Jam - Come paint, dance, and make with music with us at the bandshell!
2:00 PM - 3:00 PM - Performance - The Other Side of Sorrow by Shayla Dyble and Allison Keery - Join us back at the bandshell for a performance featuring Shayla Dyble, Alison Keery and the Contora Alegre Choir.
Alison Keery and Shayla Dyble will perform an emotionally moving 20 minute durational piece accompanied by Contora Alegra, a local choir in Prince George, exploring different waves of grief and the important role community plays in helping an individual move through their grief. When we grieve in isolation we continue to move away from connection. What does it feel like to be held by your community while you grieve? How closely related are Joy and Grief?
