Discover, Draw, Dance

Simcoe Contemporary Dancers (SCD) is hosting a two-hour dance and art workshop called Discover, Draw, Dance. This workshop is centred on creating a positive and accessible dance and creation experience.

Discover, Draw, Dance is open to all ages, levels and abilities and will consist of:

– a 30-minute visual art experience where participants will create there own unique artwork inspired by the “Seeds to Sow” art exhibition at the Lion’s Pavilion.

– a movement warm-up where we will prime our bodies to dance.

– Using the participants artwork and the Seeds to Sow artwork at Lion’s Pavilion, SCD will lead participants in a movement creation experience where we will create our own movement that will then be incorporated into a unique choreography!

This workshop is open to everyone of all ages and abilities and it is perfect for families to participate in together! During the movement components of this workshop, our focus will be on exploring elements of dance such as space, time, energy, weight and dynamics and learning movement skills through imagination and art, all with the goal of developing each participant’s expressiveness through movement!

This activity is funded by the City of Barrie for Culture Days 2024.
