Co-hosted by Dedra McDermott (DanceWorks) and Sanique Walters (Nia Centre for the Arts), audiences will experience a first look at multidisciplinary performance artist Nickeshia Garrick’s, the ties that Bind us, the ties that Bond us, a new work that is informed by the physicality and energy surrounding Black socio-political movements and their impact on Black performance art from the 1960s to now, across Turtle Island. This work will embody specific gestures and expressions from these historical moments through the lens of Garrick's blackness, queerness and ancestral blood memory.  the ties that Bind us, the ties that Bond us emerges as a virtuosic movement story that will connect the audience to her lived experiences through song, dance and spoken word.
