Audio Storytelling Workshop: The Art of Interviewing
Jun 8 @ 10:00 AM – 3:00 PM

Interested in podcasting?

Join us on Saturday, June 8 from 10am – 3pm for this introductory workshop.

To register: https://forms.office.com/r/p97nSYZMhU

Bring your own lunch. Light refreshments provided.

Workshop description:

Interviewing guests is an essential podcasting skill.

How do we put our interviewees at ease even as we point a microphone at them? How can we structure our interview questions to provoke deeper reflections and help interviewees emotionally connect to their story? How do we ensure that our interview audio is clear and compelling and grabs listeners’ ears with nothing more than the phone in your pocket?

In this workshop, Glenn Patterson, an ethnographer and public-sector heritage worker, shares some of the secrets of oral history interviewing that he has learned firsthand over the last 15 years from veteran audio storytellers and radio producers.

This workshop is a partnership between Community Digital Arts Hub – CDAH and VEQ as part of the CDAH in the Regions project funded by the Government of Canada and supported by ELAN Quebec.

The Archive of Missing Things – Morrin Centre
Jun 12 – Jun 16 all day

Come experience The Archive of Missing Things, part live performance and part contemplative game, in the Morrin Centre’s exquisite Victorian library. Equipped with an iPad and a headset, you’ll explore a maze-like archive in search of the secret at its centre, guided by clues in a live performance happening discreetly around you. Created by Halifax’s acclaimed Zuppa Theatre with award-winning writer Kate Cayley, this performance, alongside a digital book and game, presents a mystery that is beautiful, wistful… and sometimes even a little eerie.

This project is made possible thanks to the support of the Canada Council for the Arts, Arts Nova Scotia, and Conseil des arts et des lettres du Québec.

*Please visit the Morrin Centre Website for times and more information: https://www.morrin.org/en/archive-of-missing-things/?mc_cid=0712a66ce4&mc_eid=783d4e7481

Each week, the program offers a range of exciting outings. Participants can enjoy leisurely shopping trips, browsing local stores and picking up essentials. The program includes trips to l’Île d’Orléans, a charming island with villages, historic sites, and stunning landscapes. Of course, no outing is complete without a treat, so we also include stops for ice cream and other delicious treats along the way.
