Invisible Rivers

Ripple Effect, Mondo Bizarro, and New Voices New Orleans partner for a 2-month rehearsal and concert experience at KIPP Central City Primary (KCCP). This reprise program, Invisible Rivers, centers on current conversations about sediment diversion and the Mississippi River. Water can be a sustaining force, a destructive force, a healing force, and a mythological force. Whether mundane or magical, water is a central character in the lives of everyone in our city. Invisible Rivers explores our relationship to water and land loss in Southeastern Louisiana.

In Spring 2022, Ripple Effect sponsored New Voices New Orleans (NVNO) for a 9-week rehearsal and concert experience at KIPP Central City Primary (KCCP). The program, Invisible Rivers, centered on current conversations about sediment diversion and the Mississippi River.

The final concert was held at KCCP on May 7, 2022. Singers filled the room with joy for their first live performance since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic. Check out the following video!
