SUMMARY:The Voice of The River: Grand River Community Play
DESCRIPTION:The Voice of The River: Grand River Community Play will be showing in Dunnville on Thursday\, August 21st at 6:00 pm at the RCAF Dunnville Museum/Base  \nThe Grand River Community Play Project: The Voice of The River is an interdisciplinary piece that will connect the communities and inhabitants that live along the length of the Grand River – a river that starts in the highlands of Dufferin County\, travels 310 km\, before emptying into Lake Erie at Port Maitland. About a million people live within the watershed\, a watershed that passes cities\, towns and villages\, trees\, wild grasses and coyotes\, and includes thirty-nine municipalities and two First Nations territories. \nThe Voice of The River is about community and the meaningful connection to Indigenous leaders and communities along the Grand River. It is an inclusive creative activity involving artists\, municipal and Indigenous leaders\, scientists\, Elders\, Community folk\, children\, NFP organizations\, educational institutions – and most importantly the Grand River. This is a project about storytelling – in all the ways stories can be told – in spoken word\, in song\, in dance\, ceremony\, in art installation\, in silence\, through different cultural lenses\, and via technology. It is being imagined as an environmental experience – something that will develop and build over time\, leading toward a unique presentation in all four seasons\, and over many years\, passing the experience along to next generations for them to reimagine\, for them to inhabit with their own stories. \nThe Voice of The River is a community event to celebrate arts\, culture and the Grand River. All are welcome!
