We will join our friends from
the Walrus Foundation, this time on a southerly
route which will take us on a journey of
artistic and intellectual exploration.
Travelling through the grand landscape and
stimulated by a world class resource team, we’ll
draw our inspiration from the riches of Atlantic
Canada. Here, in the wilds of Labrador, the
Torngat Mountains meet the Atlantic Ocean - this
is one of the most breathtaking landscapes in
all of Canada! Guided expeditionary stops and
Zodiac cruises along Labrador’s coast will allow
time for wildlife viewing, spectacular tundra
hikes, sketching, painting and photography.
While in the Big Land we visit the region of
Nunatsiavut, home of the Labrador Inuit we will
visit both natural and cultural sites of
importance. Further south we examine the
merchant and Maritime Archaic histories enroute
through the Strait to Belle Isle. After stopping
in Gros Morne, and a few days along
Newfoundland’s remote south shore we make our
way down the east coast of Nova Scotia before
completing our journey in Halifax. This new
concept will bring on a selection of Artists,
Photographers, Musicians and Writers together on
a floating creative platform with workshops,
special projects and small-group instruction –
all inspired by the beauty of Canada’s East
Coast. Together we will work together to create
works onboard, and share them with the
communities and the world at large on our final
night in Halifax at our special gallery event. |
