Come join Samantha Whelan Kotkas (trumpet, singer, storyteller) and Walter MacDonald White Bear (drum, guitar, native flute, storyteller) as they take you on an unforgettable journey on a day that never was. Inspired by the land, water and sky, ‘Wandering with Wonder’ is a musical storytelling experience using the arts to reconnect people with nature and the Indigenous ways of knowing.

In this 60-minute performance we will explore how music is inspired by the natural world in both Classical and Indigenous musical traditions.

Best enjoyed by children 12 and under.

Presented by Create Kids Arts Society with support from Calgary Arts Development and RISE UP Downtown Vibrancy Program.
