Join host Amy Amantea in the VocalEye virtual lobby at 1:30 pm Pacific Time for a little community mingling and a special preview of Tippi & Stan with creator Dorothy Dittrich at 1:45 pm. Feature presentation begins at 2 pm. Amy will be joined by special guest Laura June Albert who will take us through some of the highlights of this year’s digital Indian Summer Festival, a virtual feast for the senses.
Our 5-course tasting menu includes a sampling of the following:
- Music (Inuit throat singers PIQSIQ)
- Ideas (Anita Anand’s A Patient Assassin)
- Art (Mandala-a-Day project)
- Poetry (Jillian Christmas’s They Said We Wouldn’t Need These Life Jackets on Dry Land)
- Food (learn to make a sprouted lentil salad with celebrity chef Vikram Vij)
- plus a little Sufi HipHop for dessert (Ruby Singh + Jhalaak)
Guests joining us from BC will be entered to win a $25 gift certificate to one of Vij’s award-winning restaurants.

Almost Live Zoom events are part of VocalEye’s response to the Covid-19 pandemic. We’re here to make live arts events more accessible, even if they’re recorded, and to stay connected, even if we’re at a distance. Thank you for holding this virtual space with us until we can safely gather together again.
