Ice Follies 2025
February 7th - 21st, 2025THEME: OZHAASHIKWAA (THE ICE IS SLIPPERY)
There is slippery ice; extra care and consideration is needed. Travelling and moving forward is difficult; the conditions are unsteady. The terrain ahead demands resilience and adaptability as the path forward remains uncertain.
Vox Choir, 2025
VOX Choir is a welcoming, free-to-participate community choir that brings people together to share the joy of singing. Open to all ages and skill levels, VOX creates a fun and casual environment where anyone can join, no experience or commitment required. Facilitated by Lindsay Sullivan and Eric Treleaven, the choir gathers regularly to learn and perform three-part harmonies of pop and rock songs, culminating in performances shared online.
Following their lively and engaging VOX on Ice performance at Ice Follies 2023, where they brought the community together to sing ‘Cold as Ice’ by Foreigner with touches of ‘Ice Ice Baby’ by Vanilla Ice, VOX Choir returns for Ice Follies 2025.
