Due to overwhelming demand, award-winning throatsinger from Silla + Rise, Charlotte Qamaniq, came back with a second one-hour long introductory workshop to throatsinging for beginners. On Wednesday, April 15 from 2:00-3:00pm (EDT), Charlotte shared an active introduction to katajjaq in a small group. This workshop was open to Inuit only, including children (provided they were accompanied by an adult on camera).

The workshop took place online using Zoom. This workshop, like every De-ICE-olation workshop, is free.

Charlotte Qamaniq is an award winning traditional and contemporary throat singer from Igloolik who made her acting debut with Kiviuq Returns for its tour to Greenland. She is now based in Ottawa with her two children. Charlotte is half of the traditional throat singing duo Silla and is a third of the Juno nominated and Stingwray Music Prize winning band Silla and Rise.
