SUMMARY:In the Ballroom: Children's Dances and their Origins
DESCRIPTION:In the Ballroom:\nChildren’s Dances and their Origins\n\n\n\n\nDive into the lively practice of traditional québécois dances! \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nJoin us for five exciting events celebrating québécois dance and music traditions\, some of which are rooted in English-speaking communities that have long helped shape our province’s cultural landscape. If you are curious\, love living heritage activities\, or simply want to move and have fun\, come experience the energy of traditional dances and the stories behind them with our Ès TRAD guests! \n  \nOn March 8\, young and old are invited to discover traditional dances and their origins to wrap up spring break with a bang with Hélène Fournier (call)\, Miriam Blair (violin)\, and Maxence Croteau (guitar). \n  \n\n\n\nProgram: \n-Dance workshop for all ages\n-Live music throughout! \n  \nThis activity is offered bilingually\, in both French and English. \nPlease bring comfortable shoes with with good support and non-adherent soles\, as well as a water bottle.\n\nBook your tickets here!\n\n\n\n\n\n  \nGuests \n \nSinger\, caller\, artisan\, and cultural animator with no equal\, Hélène Fournier is without a doubt an accomplished bearer of heritage\, as highlighted by the prize she received from Ville de Québec in 2019. With education in Popular art and traditions (Ethnology) and in Education sciences from Université Laval\, she specializes in connecting with a young public through her experiences at the Centre d’initiation au patrimoine–La Grande Ferme de  Saint-Joachim\, as well as through her punctual projects\, notably the CD-book Le bal des animaux\, Dansons sous les flocons and her call classes. \nTo learn more about Hélène Fournier\, listen to the Ès TRAD podcast “Porter la tradition.” \n— \n  \n \n  \n  \nMiriam Blair is a passionate artist. She loves playing the violin and put her talents to use for the benefit of Québécois traditional music. She has a wide enough repertoire to waltz easily between Celtic and Québécois styles (both ancient and modern). \n  \n— \n  \n  \n\n\n\n  \n  \n \nCredit: Carbo Photo \nMaxence Croteau was exposed to traditional music from a very young age\, as he accompanied his parents to festivals such as Mémoires et Racines and Chants de Vielles\, participated in evenings at the Domaine Maizerets and the Poulailler d’Inverness\, and attended shows at the Maison Chevalier or the honey farm in St-Agapit\, his birth village. As a teen\, he started learning to play the guitar\, his main instrument\, but it took many years before trying his hand at accompanying reels\, jigs\, and waltz. It’s in 2014\, at the Souches à Oreilles camp\, that he was initiated into this art by Paul Marchand and met\, at the same time\, the “great trad family.” The following yeas were marked by jam sessions\, shows\, dances\, and many other gatherings. Maxence mainly plays the guitar\, but also some violin\, concertina\, banjo\, piano\, and harmonica. Today\, he works as a contract musician\, hosts trad shows on CKRL 89\,1\, and dedicates himself to various initiatives aiming to preserve trad culture and support those that make it live. \n  \n\nIn the Ballroom—Traditional Music and Dance of a Community is presented in collaboration with the Centre de valorisation du patrimoine vivant Ès TRAD and made possible thanks to financial support from the Gouvernement du Québec and Ville de Québec through their cultural development agreement. \nCheck out the full programming here!

If you are curious\, love living heritage activities\, or simply want to move and have fun\, come experience the energy of traditional dances and the stories behind them with our Ès TRAD guests! \n  \nOn February 25\, discover the québécois twist to Scottish and Irish dances that have found a home in our province with James Allan (call)\, François Dumas (violin)\, and Susie Lemay (piano) \n  \n\n\n\nProgram: \n-Short concert\n-Short historical introduction to Scottish and Irish dances in Quebec\n-Dance workshop \n  \nThis activity is offered bilingually\, in both French and English. \nPlease bring comfortable shoes with with good support and non-adherent soles\, as well as a water bottle.\n\nBook your tickets here!\n\n\n\n\n\n  \nGuests \n \n\nCredit: Carbo Photo \n\n  \n  \nOf Scottish and Irish origin\, James Allan was born in Kinnear’s Mills and is part of a dance and calling heritage. Originally a dancer\, James started calling in 1988. He is the sole member of the new generation to call in English\, respecting this tradition of over 60 years in the Inverness townships\, which stretch along the North-East limit of the Les Bois-Francs region\, between Beauce and the Eastern Townships\, on the South shore of the St-Lawrence River. As always\, James will give his explanations in French\, present the vocabulary of the workshop\, and call in English. \n— \n  \nBorn in Saint-Charles de Bellechasse\, François Dumas discovered the violing at 4 years old. Very young\, he developed a passion for the music of his idol Jean Carignan\, whose style he will study methodically. Today\, François is admired and known everywhere as a violonist with exceptional talent. Thanks to his breathtaking bow manipulation\, François Dumas has become a worthy bearer of Jean Carignan’s repertoire and technique. François has participated in many shows and recordings. His love of québécois folklore has carried him a little bit everywhere on Quebec stages\, in a few European countries\, and in Mexico. \n— \n \nSusie Lemay started playing the accordion through her family’s influence. In 1987\, she started exploring traditional music from Quebec\, Ireland\, Scotland\, and musette on the melodeon and the three-row accordion with musical masters such as Denis Pépin and Philippe Bruneau. In 2005\, Susie purchased a two-row\, ré/do# accordion. She has since dedicated her efforts to that instrument\, and her music presents tonalities faithful to the original melodies and the opportunity to expend her repertoire through the adaptation of violin parts to the accordion. In recent years\, she is also present in the field on the piano. In 2016\, she founded the group “TIPSY 3” with two other musicians from the Maritimes\, promoting traditional music from Eastern Canada. Many traditional music event organizers call on her to showcase her mastery of her instrument and her knowledge of the repertoire. She has performed in Quebec\, in Canada\, in the United States\, and in Europe. She shares the best of the musical treasures in a universe where tradition doesn’t have borders. In 2014\, along with Denis Pépin\, she was granted the “coup de coeur” Heritage Prize from the Ville de Lévis for their album DEUX\, which came out in 2022. \n  \n\nIn the Ballroom—Traditional Music and Dance of a Community is presented in collaboration with the Centre de valorisation du patrimoine vivant Ès TRAD and made possible thanks to financial support from the Gouvernement du Québec and Ville de Québec through their cultural development agreement. \nCheck out the full programming here!

SUMMARY:Express Yourself: Writing the Messy First Draft
DESCRIPTION:Express Yourself:\nWriting the Messy First Draft\n\n\n\n\nJoin us for the creative workshop Writing the Messy First Draft: A Somatic Approach to Creative Writing \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDoes perfectionism stop you before you’ve written a single word? Does your inner critic hijack the creative process? This workshop teaches you how to bypass the editor and access authentic voice through your body. \nUsing breathwork\, bilateral movement\, and embodied writing exercises\, you’ll learn to quiet mental chatter and write from a grounded\, present state. We’ll explore the neuroscience behind creative flow and practice somatic techniques that shift you out of “editor brain” and into generative mode. \n  \n\n\n\nParticipants will:  \n– Understand how nervous system regulation supports creative expression \n– Practice body-based techniques for accessing creative flow \n– Generate 3-5 pieces of raw written material using sensory prompts \n– Learn to write from body memory rather than mental narrative \n– Take home a resource guide with somatic writing practices to continue using them independently \n  \nAll materials will be provided. This workshop is open to writers of any level\, with no previous somatic experience required.\n\nBook your tickets here!\n\n\n\n\n\n  \nWorks created during the workshop may be submitted for the Morrin Centre’s call for zine publications. \nCome ready to move\, breathe\, and get some words on the page! \n\nCheck out the Morrin Centre Website Here: https://www.morrin.org/en/event/express-yourself-writing-the-messy-first-draft/?mc_cid=66a2230d63&mc_eid=783d4e7481 \n\n  \nWorkshop Facilitator \nAmanda Jeanne is a writer and visual artist based in Lac-Beauport who integrates somatic practices into both her art-making and teaching. She publishes “Squirrel Brain\, Chickadee Soul” on Substack\, exploring creative practice\, neurodivergence\, and immigrant experience in Quebec. Amanda facilitates intuitive painting workshops and creative retreats with an embodied approach and is currently completing a memoir. Her training includes AMI Quebec’s “Write from the Heart” workshop series\, therapeutic arts facilitation\, and Somatic Activated Healing (SAH) method practice. You can find her work online on her website and on Substack. \n  \n\n  \n   The project Express Yourself—From Thought to Zine is made possible thanks to the support of the Government of Canada.

SUMMARY:Artistic Connections: Fearless Fabric Fun
DESCRIPTION:Artistic Connections:\nFearless Fabric Fun\n\n\n\n\nJoin us for a fabric painting workshop with painter Dianna Burns! \n\n\n\n\nCome express your creative self on cloth! You will learn how to paint on almost anything and make a table runner that is truly your own. \n\n\n\nThis workshop is given in English.\nIt is open to all and no previous experience is required. \nThe Morrin Centre offers a natural material table runner to participants who book a ticket that covers it. If you prefer to bring your own natural fiber table runner\, napkins or placemats\, please book a ticket without table runner. All other crafts material will be provided.\nBook your tickets here!  \n\n\n\n\n\n  \nWorkshop Facilitator—Dianna Burns \n \nI am an enthusiastic and vigorous painter who has had a dedicated studio practice since 1997. I am curious and experimental by nature and my daily art practice includes an intuitive and eclectic painting style. Being a fearless painter I allow myself the presence to let the paint flow\, taking a course of its own and directing the traffic that becomes my art. I am as adventurous and spirited in my art as I am in my life. I am easily bored and must create in order to have a meaning in my life. \nOriginally from Saskatchewan\, I embrace the abundance of nature which is the underlying inspiration that informs my work. There is nothing that can be made that nature hasn’t already perfected. I steep myself in colour and I paint mostly in oil\, usually in an abstract manner. When the spirit moves me I utilize mixed media\, and I have been known to include collage elements\, resin\, inks and encaustic applications as well. Colour\, line and form direct my process of layering paint\, building texture\, moving and removing paint and balancing the composition as it begins to emerge on the canvas\, until I find the combination that expresses my inner voice. My inner voice can change from day to day so a painting usually is transformed a number of times before it is uniquely and decidedly my own. \nI have migrated from spending most of my life on the Prairies in Saskatchewan to Vancouver and since 2021 to Limoilou in Quebec City. In Vancouver I had a very engaged studio practice as an active member of Razstone Studio and the North Vancouver Arts Council. I participated in the East Side Culture Crawl from 2010-2021. I take commissions for conceptual art and portraiture. My work has been shown extensively in Western Canada and sold internationally. \nYou can view my art online here. Please feel free to contact me if you would like to discuss art or have an interest in a visit to my studio. \n  \n\nThis activity is part of the Artistic Connections – Creating Intergenerational Bonds project\, made possible thanks to support from the Government of Canada.

SUMMARY:Artistic Connections : Breathing Life into Packaging with 3D
DESCRIPTION:Artistic Connections :\nBreathing Life into Packaging with 3D\n\n\n\n\nAre you curious about 3D design? Come learn about this versatile medium for creative expression! \n\n\n\n\nThis hands-on workshop explores how 3D and texturing can bring packaging design to life. Participants will learn the basics of Blender\, discover how textures enhance digital objects\, and experiment with turning hand-drawn ideas into digital materials. Moving from paper to screen\, we’ll bridge traditional creativity and digital craft to better understand 3D from a practical perspective and see how it can open new creative possibilities. \nPlease note: No previous experience is required and all crafts material will be provided. Participants do not need a computer. \n**Please visit the Morrin Centre website to book. \nBiography \nMaïmouna Traore is a graphic design graduate and aspiring art director with a strong focus on branding\, storytelling\, and 3D art. Her curiosity and experimental mindset led her to teach herself Blender\, a 3D modeling software that broadened her creative range by allowing her to merge 3D modeling with graphic design to create striking visuals that distinguish her creative voice. Still early in her career\, she is continually exploring new mediums\, techniques\, and concepts\, often incorporating photography and illustration into her work. Maïmouna’s multidisciplinary approach reflects her belief that design is most impactful when it unites technical mastery\, experimentation\, and narrative depth. \n  \n\n  \n  \nThe Artistic Connections—Creating Intergenerational Bonds project invites people from different backgrounds to come together and enjoy shared artistic experiences through a variety of visual and performing arts workshops. \nDesigned to foster connection and collaboration between community members of all ages\, this project highlights different approaches to creative expression influenced and motivated by the tendencies of artistic disciplines through the ages. Learning more about these distinct approaches enables you to develop techniques and to appreciate the artistic works of different generations. \n  \n  \nThis project is made possible thanks to the support from the Government of Canada.
