Event Type : Dundas

Some platitudes don’t get along on the playground.

If change is inevitable, and children are the future, shouldn’t we be listening to young people’s experiences more deeply?

This performance is inspired by African-American author and social activist, Toni Cade Bambara:

“The role of the artist is to make the revolution irresistible.”

Joining choral singing with spoken word art, this is a collaboration with the incredible Hamilton You Poets, featuring percussionist Jamie Drake.

In this performance, you’ll hear voices considering where and when they see a need for change, and how and why it needs to happen.

The 26^th Annual Dundas Studio is on Saturday, September 30, and Sunday, October 1 from
10 a.m. to 5 p.m. daily at 7 studios locations in and around Dundas.   

Admission is free.  

The theme
for the 2023 Dundas Studio Tour is Changing Shapes. As the saying
goes, art imitates life. So as in life, our art is constantly growing,
evolving, and changing. Be it experimenting with a different form or media. Our
art is constantly changing shapes. Whether it be a change in the pattern or cut
of a design, or a change in the painter’s interpretation of a landscape, or a
potter’s experimentation with different forms, art is not stagnant. It is a
living thing that grows and changes over time, constantly changing shapes.

Come and
experience the autumn colour and charm of Dundas and celebrate artistic
excellence.    Here you will find unique treasures for all
budgets.

Treat
yourself, or a friend…. meet the maker …. order a custom work of art …
find the perfect gift……enjoy the beauty and energy of the studios and the
colours of fall in our historic Valley Town. While you are visiting, plan to
enjoy a meal at one of the many fine restaurants Dundas has to offer.
