WE ARE WATER:
A NORTHEAST CELEBRATION
Featuring Yo-Yo Ma, Jeremy Dutcher, Mali Obomsawin, and Chris Newell
Yo-Yo Ma and friends present an evening of songs and stories to ask how the waters of the North — from Kwenitekw (the Connecticut River) to Supeq (the ocean) and Punkik (the Arctic North) — connect us to each other and to our past, present, and future. This special event, rooted in wisdom and inspired by a dream for the future, invites us to come together as a community and find hope for a changing planet.
ALL AGES price is available for this event.
