Arts In The Parks Event

Migration Celebration

Migration Celebration uses theatre arts to honor the vital role of birds, butterflies, and animals in our ecosystems and daily lives. Shadowland artists will be in residence at Dentonia Park for three days, culminating in a community parade.
 
Join Shadowland’s arts programming for all ages, where you can create costumes and puppets, learn music and songs, share stories, experience Indigenous teachings and go on nature walks.
 
Cameroonian musician Njacko Backo will collaborate with Shadowland’s Chris Wilson and Jim Bish to lead music workshops and provide parade tunes. Alan Colley will offer Medicine Wheel teachings and guide walks to explore the creatures and natural medicines found in the park.
 
All these activities will culminate in a spectacular parade, where everyone is invited to tour the park in a joyous and colorful celebration of birds, butterflies, and animals.
