Project Description

New Movement at Mount Sequoyah is a community-integrated residency that will culminate in a new site-specific performance that gathers stories and histories of Mount Sequyoah to create a narrative examining relationships with our own memories, the memories of others, and memories the land of Mt. Sequoyah holds.
