Crepuscule, Guelph, 2016



I wish I had submitted more of a description of what the uke pod would be, but instead I sent this as a bio for the Crepuscule Program:

A mostly-self-taught artist, Kim Logue is a poet and writer that hails from a business background. With more recent experience as an award-winning broadcaster, artist manager, papermaker, film maker, emcee, and songwriter, she aspires as a vocalist and musician. She founded the Guelph Mighty Uke club, wherein local players and enthusiasts of all ages and skill levels get together sing and play together to celebrate a fun and friendly instrument, and to promote health, peace, joy and happiness!

Seeking Uke Players ~ re: free, family friendly event Sat May 14, 2pm at the Arboretum

Have you heard about the upcoming Crepuscule event already? You are invited to an improvised collaboration led by the 2015-16 Improviser-in-Residence, Douglas R. Ewart, that includes a broad combination of community groups and artists organized as “pods.”

Please bring a ukulele (or borrow an extra we will have on hand) in a celebration of good health, peace, joy and happiness! Our "uke pod" will have a sweet 20-30 minute jam and song circle before interacting (as we wish) with the other performance groups... We will be part of an active audience of community and activities, within a group of diverse folk, from all walks of life!

Bring your family and friends! And help us spread the word... You don't want to miss this celebration of art and music -- inspired by land and water — at the Arboretum, University of Guelph.

p.s. we are encouraged to dress enthusiastically, vibrantly, and, creatively!
For more info on the event, check out the invite specific to ukes, or the larger event invite!  Hope to see you there.
