FLOW – Connecting to the River through Science and Performance

FLOW is a new workshop series offered by Skeleton Key Theatre and Ottawa Riverkeeper that inspires youth to become stewards of the Ottawa River by understanding their impact on the watershed through artistic exploration.
What can arts-based and scientific understandings of flowing water teach us about how to live in better relationships with the land, river, and each other? In this multidisciplinary and experiential workshop series for students in grades 5 to 12, a combination of science and dramatic performance strengthens students’ connections with the watershed. Over the course of a 10-day residency, students will create their own performance piece around the concept of flow and how it pertains to water, time, bodies, and the relationships between these elements.
