This event is in preparation for an upcoming production presented by UtahPresents, The Aunties. The Aunties is a live storytelling and documentary series created in honor of the women and two-spirit culture bearers who shape, support, and uphold Indigenous communities – aunties. Three Indigenous auntie culture bearers from the surrounding traditional territories share stories from stage accompanied by archival photographs, further enriched by works of legacy, including poetry, song, and visual art. Stories told from stage will be immortalized on film and become the heart of a documentary series. Live footage is interwoven with scenes from the places, people, and land from which the stories emerge. The documentary shorts are intended as a cultural resource to preserve the wisdom of the aunties through films of artistic, visual, and cultural integrity.
