CALLING ALL YOUNG BLACK AND INDIGENOUS ARTISTS, AGES 18-26
Children's Peace Theatre has launched Soil, Spirit, Society, a three-year land-based art project that calls on community
to consider our connections and relationships to land, our own spiritual selves, and our communities.
We will be engaging a group of young Indigenous and Black people to co-create and collaborate on curriculum that will examine intersections of experiences, ancestor knowledge, land-based relationships (including food and medicine planting and growing),
and multidisciplinary art creation.
UPCOMING RESIDENCY: Thursday, September 27th to Sunday, September 30th, 2018

We are seeking Indigenous and/or Black youth to participate in a four day, multidisciplinary exploration and retreat at
Children's Peace Theatre from September 27th to 30th. Honorarium will be provided on the final day.
Activities will include teachings about non-colonial Indigenous Treaties, Haudenosaunee harvesting protocols, medicine and healing, collaborative artistic creations, and how blood memory is ignited when we connect to land and soil.
If you are interested in participating, we invite you to respond to any one of the following questions
(responses can be in any art form, including song, visual art, writing, or video):
What does Indigenous and Black solidarity mean to you?
How can we create a future that celebrates and centres Black and Indigenous peoples?
When you hear the words, "soil," "spirit," and "society," what do you see?
What does healing mean to you?
Deadline is Friday, August 24th, 2018.
