Showcasing artists from all three territories, From the North’s gala performance weaves together stories, music, and dance from some of the North’s most talented artists, including IVA, Riit, Quantum Tangle, NÀHGĄ, Sophie Villeneuve, Borealis Soul, and the Dakhká Khwáan Dancers and DASH.

Featuring throat singing, hip hop dancing, electronica-infused traditional drumming, dancing, and singing and storytelling in French, English, and Inuktitut, From the North will share stories of the North, how we see the world, and who we are as Northerners.

The Whitehorse show will launch From the North’s tour, which will continue on to Yellowknife, Iqaluit, Ottawa, Montreal and Vancouver.
