The River Clyde Pageant
Business Description
The River Clyde Pageant is a non-profit organization that unites local creators, volunteers & professional artists across cultures & creative practices in the making of ambitious, awe-inspiring outdoor theatre and seasonal events. Our central project is our summer production of the same name, created and performed in New Glasgow, PEI since 2016. Other projects include Sharing the Field, a weekend celebration of art, food and community during the fall harvest, and the River Clyde Solstice Walk, an outdoor lantern walk celebrating the winter solstice. We aim to nourish our community by presenting a season of programming that celebrates local talent & stories, offers opportunities for creative skills development & mentorship, and values artistic risk and long-term engagement.
The River Clyde Pageant was founded in 2016. 2022 marks the 6th edition of our summer production, and our 7th year of programming. The organization is led by a board of directors, a core artistic team, and 2-3 staff members. For our summer production, we employ a 25-person creative/production team, and engage approximately 150 performers and volunteers in the making of the show.
