The Pollination Ceremony
September 24, 6:00 PM-midnight
The Forks, 1 Forks Market Road
The Pollination Ceremony is theatrical spectacle in celebration of the Bee. Part parade, part fertility rite, part nature documentary opera, it is a celebration of bees and all the work they do supporting our society and food security. Developed over the last 8 years by Jesse Krause and the Riel Gentlemen’s Choir, various iterations have appeared at Brandon Folk Festival, Harvest Moon Folk Festival, and Nuit Blanche Winnipeg. The current version features a 20ft Queen bee sculpture/puppet as well as several smaller bees and a variety of flowers, all lit with LEDs. Last seen in 2019, it was scored for soloist, double choir, percussion and horns, and was performed with the aid of soprano Sara Klefstad and the Winnipeg Chapter of the Resistance Revival Chorus. This year’s production will mark the end of our pandemic hiatus, and will take place at The Forks.
