Event Description

The Art of Visiting – Performance: Who Will Save The Night Sky
LodgePole Arts Alliance is proud to be hosting THE ART OF VISITING, a National Indigenous Presenters Gathering, with these select FREE events open to the public at The Hotel Wolfe Island and the Tett Centre.

WHO WILL SAVE THE NIGHT SKY
NOTE: This event will be held at the Tett Centre for Creativity and Learning, 370 King Street, Kingston.

Did you know there are nearly 4000 satellites already in the sky, with hopes of 42,000 in the near future? Did you know in 1958 we nearly nuked the moon? Did you know that when satellites stop working, they are left to float in the outer atmosphere of earth…alone…hapless, hopeless, helpless 🙁

ENOUGH FACTS!

allow me to take you on a celestial journey, snacks provided, to a big board roo...m in the sky. plleeeaaassee, allow me to whisk my tail and weave you a tale and tattle tale on the tell tale signs of a GOOD STORY! a long time ago, in the future an important group of star beings got together to discuss the fate of earth and the two leggeds…and the fun begins.
