SUMMARY:Dancers Of Damelahamid: Minowin
DESCRIPTION:Students grades 8–12 $5 \nMînowin illuminates the process of finding direction and explores understandings of organic moments that arise when we connect with one another. These connections breathe new life into our artistic practices and offer critical inquiries with performance spaces. \nThrough integrating narrative\, movement\, song\, performance\, and new multimedia design\, Mînowin connects landscapes and Coastal form line with contemporary perspectives of customary Indigenous dance forms. The Dancers of Damelahamid draw from origin stories and explore ways to translate these perspectives through a contemporary lens. Through multimedia elements\, this production balances the performance space by adding contemporary reflections of Indigenous identity\, immersing audiences in a narrative that illustrates moments of connection\, understanding\, and renewal. \nOpening performance from the Cowichan Tzinquaw Dancers! \n\n\n\nDancers of Damelahamid is an Indigenous dance company founded upon over five decades of extensive work of song and dance revitalization. For countless generations Indigenous dance played an integral part in defining art and culture. In response to the lifting of the Potlatch Ban (1884 – 1951)\, was the resurfacing of dance and the awakening of an art form that was outlawed for almost 70 years. The Dancers of Damelahamid emerged in the 1960s out of an urgency to ensure that these artistic practices were not lost. \nThe Dancers of Damelahamid has since established itself as a leading professional Indigenous dance company. The company’s artistic approaches have contributed to its abilities to bridge creative practices and to work with innovative mediums\, while maintaining commitment to the integrity of their artistic legacy. It is through continual and diligent practice that this dance form endures as non-static and relevant to current innovation\, influence\, and insights.
