Experience Indigenous culture through story dance and song!
For countless generations, Indigenous dance played an integral part in defining art and culture. The Dancers of Damelahamid emerged in the 1960s out of an urgency to ensure that these artistic practices were not lost. Spirit and Tradition conveys important cultural teachings on balance, interconnectedness, and community. Through the sharing of Indigenous knowledge and artistic practices of the Northwest Coast, Spirit and Tradition layers Coastal masked dances, projected imagery, soundscape, and LED puppetry. The audience is immersed in the rich and diverse ecosystem of the coastal mountains and oceans.
