Meet at 3:45 PM at Riverdale Community Hall (9231 100 Ave NW, Edmonton)
New Music Edmonton wraps up the 2024 calendar year with a really beautiful way to experience winter in our city: a solstice sunset soundwalk (hopefully) in the snow! There is nothing like a beautiful December sunset here, and it’s a great chance to get out for a walk and listen to what our city sounds like in the winter. If you’ve never gone on a soundwalk before, it’s easy, and amazing: we’ll gather at an agreed place and one of our community’s great artists will lead us on a carefully chosen route through the sonically rich environment we enjoy here. If you think it’s all car noise and such, you will be delighted to find out how many wonderful things you can hear!
The route will include a final destination indoors, where everyone can enjoy complimentary snacks, warming beverages, and maybe some conversation about your soundwalk experience!
We will, of course, keep an eye on the weather and will adjust the date and time if it’s not safe to be out!
There will be a (non-New Music Edmonton) gathering and potluck following the soundwalk, which participants are welcome to attend.
