These walks will take place every 1st Saturday of the month from 10am-11am and will continue through winter and spring.
"This practice draws on the outdoor improvised movement exercises I’ve been working with for the past few years. I am grateful to the following places + folks in these places, that taught me: the Illinois prairie, a small fishing village in Central America, forest preserves in Michigan, a medieval town in the mountains of France."
MEET MAURIAH: Mauriah Donegan Kraker is a midwesterner, a collaborative performance maker, a walker, movement artist, teacher. She is an advocate for slow travel: walking around the block and through the city as a means of attending to choreographic unfolding of time cycles in the body + land. She has led folks on site walks through the Italian Alps, sound walks in southern France, and outings to highway underpasses and prairies in the Midwest- the walks culminating in participatory events and dance performance. Find her near the Milwaukee River, where she is serving as an Artist in Residence of the Milwaukee River Greenway.

ARTservancy: Mauriah is a 2020-2021 ARTservancy Artist in Residence of the Milwaukee River at the River Revitalization Foundation. This yearlong residency program will feature the work of twelve artists who each select a land trust preserve to engage with to create a body of artwork. The objective of ARTservancy is to promote the visionary work of both the artists and the land conservation. Mauriah’s time at the Milwaukee River will culminate in a week-long series of events in mid-summer, ranging from service oriented gatherings to storytelling, river walks, and site specific performances in and along the river. |
