Musical Performance- 'Wanting to Start Again'
Host: DoSi

Info: ‘Wanting to Start Again’ is a violin-piano concert experience that addresses the complicated and difficult feelings that arise when living in a world being ravaged by climate change. This program arose from a feeling of hopelessness and grief fueled by the fires that happened in Banff and Halifax. DoSi will create a space for the audience to sit with their feelings and ask themselves: how do we choose to start again when we are at our lowest?

🕑: 02:15 PM - 03:00 PM
Light refershments and community conversations

Info: Join us after the performance for some light refreshments and a chance to chat with the musicians, CAFES team and other concert-goers. It will be an opportunity for you to unpack the thoughts and ideas that the musical experience brought up and connect with community.
