Join First Nations dancer Nyla Carpentier for a powwow performance Sunday as part of Place des Arts’ Family Day.
The Coquitlam arts hub will feature Carpentier, who is the second artist-in-residence of the season and will dance to a piece call Powwow Expressions, which explores the history and dance style of the Woman’s Fancy Shawl dance. The public will have a chance to learn some of the steps afterwards.
Family Day at PdA will also include workshops based on the media used by the exhibiting artists: Suite E Life Drawing Group, Anson Aguirre Firth and Package Deal.
The free event runs from 1:30 to 3:30 p.m. at 1120 Brunette Ave. To RSVP, call 604-664-1636 or go online to Brown Paper Tickets.
