« Aanmitaagzi’s Summer Arts Program is a six-week intensive course in theatre arts. Students will learn the basics of contemporary performing arts techniques rooted in Aboriginal worldview. Students will learn acting technique with Sid Bobb, dance and movement for actors with Penny Couchie and Cristina Lella, visual arts and installation making with Megan Paulin and cultural teachings with Carol Guppy. In addition to the regular daily technique classes, students will learn stories from local elders and storytellers and hand drum songs and dance from Tasheena Sarazin and Darren Nakogee. Students participate in the creation of self-scripted works and art installations for a public presentation.
