​Place of Significance

We give to you this offering for a moment of reflection. Grab a quiet and comfortable place to watch, listen, and follow along.

Let this guided moment fuel you into your work, a creative process, or writing session. A Place of Significance can be a starting-off place for a story or movement piece, a song or a tune. If you feel inspired to create after this experience, please share with us what you've made.

Shot at 16°F in Elburn, Illinois with COVID guidelines in place. Content from Emilie Winter and video from Claire Allegra Taylor. Open Captions available. Dec. 2020.

[Video Description: Emilie Winter, dressed in a purple beanie and brightly colored jacket and scarf, sits on a pile of old logs, lightly covered with mushrooms, in a field with a few bare trees nearby. It is snowing lightly and you can see her breath. Emilie talks directly to the camera for the majority of the video, and there are a few cut aways to close up shots of the mushrooms, trees, and Emilie in meditation. The title slide reads "A Place of Significance: a guided creative meditation with Emilie Winter" and the credits slide reads "For more information visit www.thekaleidoscapes.org"]

Bring your favorite warm beverage to an online social space with other theatre artists--we’re looking to deepen our network of collaborators, and we want to meet you! Every second Saturday of the month we discuss what's on our minds at the intersection of climate justice and the arts. 

This week our guiding topic will be: How do we advocate for responsibility within ourselves?

​We are actively searching for schools to partner with for the 2021-2022 academic year. Story Guides is a mentorship program for youth aged 7-13, designed to help develop strong storytelling skills, while simultaneously learning about surrounding local ecosystems. Know a middle school teacher or principal who would be interested in partnering with us to provide virtual enrichment to the classroom? We'd love to get connected: info@thekaleidoscapes.com
