COMMUNITY FEAST

A Community Feast prepared by the talented chef Kai Zyganiuk will immediately follow up the

AGM. Enjoy a meal that mixes traditional & contemporary foods.

CELEBRATION OF LIFE PERFORMANCE ON ORAL STORIES

Following the Community Feast, ANDPVA will present a Celebration of Life Performance on

Oral Stories, a special performance led by the youth from our Indigenous Youth Leadership

Training program. Our youth have been working hard at various workshops including Shadow

Puppet Making with Red Pepper Spectacle, Improv with Herbie Barnes, Dancing with Christine

& Lydia Taranko as well as upcoming workshops with Sadie Buck in Six Nations, Silk-

Screening with Red Pepper & PSA Development with Bernard Leroux to name a few.

The goal of the program is to collect oral stories from Elders & Knowledge Keepers and than

create a multi-disciplinary performance interpreted by the youth about the oral stories they've

gathered.
