Onhwa' Lumina

You are invited to Wendake, near the city of Quebec, to discover an enchanted night walk that celebrates the Wendat Nation and their way of life. As night falls, you will be transported along a 1.2-kilometre pathway infused with the magic of light, sound and video projections. This immersive multimedia experience will invite you into a collective adventure rich with emotion, that bridges the founding myth to a vision of a bright and promising future. In the heart of Wendake, a poetic forest journey awaits you. Begin within the Great Circle, then travel across the back of the Turtle, around the heart of a traditional longhouse, through the village and among the stars. Along the way, the Wendat language will come to life, as stories are told in light and songs infuse every step. The experience was developed alongside artists, musicians, historians, writers and community members from the Huron-Wendat Nation. It is grounded in the rich creative traditions of Huron-Wendat culture, and explores themes such as the cycle of life, the passing down of knowledge, and the shared relationship between all living things. This is the 14th Lumina in Moment Factory's night walk series, and the 5th to be located in Quebec. The experience takes place even in rain (a raincoat is suggested; umbrellas are not recommended). Snacks and non-alcoholic beverages are allowed on site.
