Please make sure you select the ticket for the time you wish to attend. Entry for this concert is at The Victoria Conservatory of Music 900 Johnson Street. 
In its 32nd year, and as popular today as ever, one of this country’s most joyous annual traditions returns to Victoria this December with two performances! 
Known for sold-out houses and standing ovations, this ensemble is a "must-see" ticket on the holiday calendar. Winter Harp is a joyous concert experience that has captured the spirit of the season, and audience's hearts, for more than three decades. On stage, Winter Harp’s outstanding musicians and singers, clad in beautiful medieval attire, perform a collection of music that ranges from familiar carols to Celtic, medieval and world tunes.
The Alix Goolden theatre sets a gorgeous backdrop for the ensemble's golden Celtic and classical harps, drums, tambourines, temple bells, flutes, and an assortment of beautiful, ancient and rare instruments, including the ethereal-sounding bass psaltery (the only one like it in the world), the organistrum (an early form of the hurdy-gurdy) and the Swedish nyckelharpa. 
For more than 30 years, tens of thousands of people have made Winter Harp their annual tradition -- now that is something to celebrate! Winter Harp . . . Christmas begins here.

Welcome to FEAST OF THE DEADLY : A Samhain Ceremonial Cabaret The transitional time between Summer and Fall has been a significant portal for cultures worldwide. It's the time when we say good bye to the vibrancy, fertility and warmth of the land, and begin the decent into the darkness. It is the time of preparing for hibernation, of introspection and of honouring the vital role that Death has to play in the never ending cycle of Life and Rebirth. It is also a time for Feasting, Celebrating the Harvest and paying homage to ones we loved and lost, Remember the Ancestors. 
It is with this inspiration that Imaginal Cabaret has woven a night you will never forget, sure to sooth your soul and stimulate your spirit. Feast of the Deadly is more then a show, it is an experience, an immersive co-creation of magic and celebration.
What to expect:
A Feast for the Senses as you witness the potency of artistic expression from some of the Deadliest Performance Artists Vancouver Island has to offer with roots that run deep and spread all around the world! 
Hosted by Serra Moanie we will journey together through the veil to receive gifts from:The Elementals Featuring:
Atrevida Love as Earth
Minx Latinx as Air 
Holly Shirt as Fire 
WanderLost as Water
and joined by: 
Khushi

Land and Cultural Acknowledgement
We acknowledge that we are all guests here, on territories historically and continually cared for by the Lekwungen and Songhees peoples, and woven with the presence and history of the W̱SÁNEĆ, Te’mexw Treaty Association, and the Cayuse, Umatilla, and Walla Walla nations. May we all walk softly, and mindfully as we arrive to this ceremonial event in a good way. May we listen deeply to the original ancestors of these lands and waters around what is now called Victoria which has historically been home to vibrant, complex cultures for thousands of years. The Lekwungen and W̱SÁNEĆ peoples, among others, have longstanding relationships with these places—relationships expressed through ceremony, language, art, and sustainable stewardship. 
Ceremonies here have often been tied to the seasons, the salmon, the camas harvest, and the cedar—all gifts of the land and sea. For instance, the camas root (q̓ʷəɬniʔ in Lekwungen), a traditional staple food, was harvested with care and gratitude, reflecting a deep understanding of reciprocity. First Salmon ceremonies honoured the return of the salmon each year, acknowledging their sacrifice and the need to fish responsibly.
These practices weren’t just events—they were (and are) part of a continuous, living culture rooted in respect, gratitude, and responsibility to all living things.
 
Accessibility
Church of truth is a fully accessible venue that is all located on one level. It has 3 gender neutral washrooms including one wheelchair accessible washroom located by the front entrance. If you or anyone in your party is using a wheelchair or larger mobility aid, please reach out to Imaginal Cabaret (imaginal.cabaret@gmail.com) so we can create space during set up.

Smartphones are one of many ‘modifications’ humans make to themselves in the name of advancement. Early cybernetic devices have ranged from contact lenses to cochlear implants. Now haptics on our phones remind us to drink water, notifications urge us to get enough sleep, and our senses are extended by a web of computers accessible from the pocket-sized terminals we tuck under our pillows at night. This is a new work that explores pervasive media and our relationships to our devices, how they extend our senses, and affect our relationships with other humans and ourselves.
