Fwd: Upcoming performance in your community
Be inspired. Be impressed. Be entertained!
The Northern Arts and Cultural Centre encourages the development of the performing arts from all cultural traditions and provides venues in the Northwest Territories for professionally produced performances. This year we want to recognize all communities that we visit on tour and give voice to the people we serve from Fort Smith at the 60th parallel to Inuvik just above the 68th parallel. This year's program is sure to inspire, impress and keep you entertained.
The first show in the communities will be the storytelling festival on tour from September 12-16. For more info go to this link: http://naccnt.ca/events/nacc-festival-events/ko-ke-storytelling-festival
Storytelling performers in Hay River (Sept 14|7pm, Riverview Cineplex) and Fort Simpson (Sept 16|7pm, Bompas Elementary School):
Moe Clark is a multidisciplinary Métis artist, storyteller, spoken word artist, singer, educator, producer, public speaker, activist and self-described, "Mistress of the looping pedal."
Thelma Cheechoo is a storyteller from Moose Factory Island, Ontario, located on the southern tip of James Bay. Her family, who owned a hunting and fishing business on Kesagami Lake, lived off the land while keeping storytelling and music a vital and natural part of everyday life.
Dëneze Nakehk'o is Denesuline and Dehcho Dene from Denendeh. He has over a decade's worth of Northern media and broadcasting experience, a continuation of his family's storytelling tradition. Nakehk'o is the Director of Radio for CKLB, part of the Native Communications Society of the Northwest Territories.
Storytelling performers in Fort Smith (Sept 14|7pm, Mission Historic Park), Norman Wells (Sept 15|7pm, Dennis Drolet Memorial Community Hall) and Inuvik (Sept 16|7pm, Midnight Sun Complex):

Quantum Tangle fuses old-world sounds and new-world flair. Greyson Gritt and Tiffany Ayalik embrace their blended backgrounds, combining their talents of throat singing, haunting melodies and traditional legends. Gritt and Ayalik are excited to present a circumpolar mix of flavours from across Canada and Greenland.
All tickets and season passes are now available online, by phone or in-person. Select communities can purchase tickets and passes at local businesses (INUVIK: Originals on MacKenzie, FORT SIMPSON: Open Sky Creative Society, FORT SMITH: Northern Life Museum and Cultural Centre).

Make Your Own Heritage Minute Student Contest and Learning Materials
Historica Canada (KDAngelo@HistoricaCanada.ca) has requested the distribution of the following contest. If you no longer wish to be on this mailing list please reply with the subject line "Unsubscribe"
Greetings!
We're in the process of promoting a Canadian History-focused contest, Make Your Own Heritage Minute: Stories of Sir John A. and the Fathers of Confederation, that invites Canadian youth to explore the legacy of Sir John A. Macdonald and the Fathers of Confederation by creating their very own Heritage Minute-style video for a chance to win great prizes, like iPads and Smart Watches. There are also free bilingual learning tools about Sir John A. and Confederation for both junior/intermediate and senior levels available, as well as specialized French Immersion learning tools for download on our website: www.storiesofsirjohna.ca.
The contest itself is a great chance for young people to get creative with history and we welcome submissions from grades 5-12 and grade 5 to secondary V in Quebec in both official languages. The contest closes November 30, 2015.
I've attached a contest poster for you to read and post in your organization. We're very eager to ensure as many young Canadians as possible have the opportunity to participate in the contest.

Jessica Dutton from the South Slave Research Centre (jdutton@auroracollege.nt.ca) has requested the distribution of the following event:If you would no longer like to receive announcements from the Northern Life Museum & Cultural Centre please reply with the subject line "UNSUBSCRIBE".
The Aurora college Speaker Series Presents:
F.O.X.Y. (Fostering Open eXpression among Youth)
Candice Lys and the FOXY team
WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 11, 2015
7:00pm, Aurora College Lobby
Research Presentation
FOXY is a program that uses arts-based methods and participatory action research design to transform the way young women in the NWT think about sexual health and relationships. The program uses traditional beading, theatre, digital storytelling, photography, and music to help teenage girls express their knowledge, opinions, and questions about health and love (and everything in between). With a strong focus on sexual health and empowered decision-making, girls across the North get to know themselves a little bit better and learn through the arts. The program was recently awarded the Arctic Inspiration Prize – a $1 million investment in expanding the program across all three territories, including male and LGBT youth.
Generous support for the Aurora College Speaker Series provided by
