Onhwa’Lumina

ONHWA’ Lumina is an enchanted night walk in the heart of Wendake, Quebec that invites visitors into a poetic multimedia world shaped by the stories, symbols and rhythms of the Huron-Wendat.

Through immersive installations including lighting design, video projection, scenography and an original soundtrack, visitors are led on a sensorial journey that connects the creation myth to a bright collective future.

The experience was developed alongside artists, musicians, historians, writers and community members from the Nation. It is grounded in the rich creative traditions of the Huron-Wendat culture, and explores themes such as the cycle of life, the passing down of knowledge, and the shared relationship between all living things.

This is the 14th Lumina in the night walk series, and the 5th to be located in Quebec.

The site is accessible for certain strollers. Since the course isn’t paved but rather dirt since it is located in the forest, it’s best to opt for a stroller with rubber wheels instead of plastic. For example, a small foldable “umbrella”-style stroller is not recommended. Thank you for your interest in Onhwa’ Lumina, and we look forward to your visit!
