À propos
Join us for Culture Days 2025 with an unforgettable evening of storytelling through voice, music, and visual expression. The Storytelling Slam Night invites the community to share and connect through personal stories that reflect our lived experiences.
Arrive at 6:00 p.m. to enjoy light refreshments and share Strawberry Juice & Cedar Tea with the Orillia Native Women’s Group while learning a few words in Anishinaabemowin. Explore creativity hands-on in Arts Orillia’s Animation Art & Photography Collage Youth Lab, and view powerful visual storytelling through an exhibition presented by North Simcoe Arts.
At 6:30 p.m., the stage comes alive with performances from Ty the Poetess, the Orillia & Area Black Community Association, and a special sneak peek from Mariposa Arts Theatre’s (MAT) production of Jesus Christ Superstar. The evening will also feature a pre-registered storytelling showcase and an open mic segment, offering space for those who wish to prepare in advance as well as those who feel called to share impromptu after hearing others’ stories. Guests can also enter a draw to win two tickets to MAT’s Jesus Christ Superstar and $100 Downtown Dollars.
Whether you listen, create, or speak, Storytelling Slam Night promises to inspire, and bring us closer together as a community. Free and open to all, this event is presented in partnership with the City of Orillia, Arts Orillia, Mariposa Arts Theatre, North Simcoe Arts, the Orillia & Area Black Community Association and the Orillia Native Women’s Group. You don’t want to miss this one-of-a-kind evening of culture and connection—mark your calendars!
