Explore the Natural Cycles of Change
Step into a world of transformation with the Dancers of Damelahamid. Sii Se’tamat – New Beginning explores the natural cycles of change and renewal, from the shifting seasons to our connection with the celestial realm.
Through powerful coastal masked dance, intricately carved masks, elaborate regalia, and compelling storytelling, the Dancers of Damelahamid bring the landscapes and living traditions of the Northwest Coast to the stage. The movement of the seasons echoes the continuum of an intergenerational dance lineage, connecting generations past, present, and future.
A stunning celebration of Indigenous culture, community, and the possibilities that live within every new beginning. Watch the video below.
