Human Sunrise Festival

From the venue:

7 Stages invites you to our Human Sunrise Festival on May 28th, from 3 - 7 PM in our lobby and outdoors.

An eclectic range of artistic responses to Joy Harjo’s An American Sunrise encourage audiences and L5P visitors to honor the Muscogee and Creek people and their land. As we shed light on colonialism and complacency, we celebrate all of our ancestors and commit to future generations through art-making and story-sharing.

An immersive installation explores the four classical elements (Earth, Fire, Air, Water) and our stories’ relationships to them. Visual art created by our students, teaching artists, community members, as well as local, national and international artistic associates decorates our gallery. Spoken word poetry, music, dance, aerial performances, and a screening of selected films create a flurry of activity, engagement and connection throughout the event.
