AUDIO COLLAGE 
This community audio collage gives voice to the words of our late dear friend and ensemble member Greg Mate. During the last 152 days of Greg Mate’s life he posted on Facebook each day something that made his days a happy day. His happy day posts became well-loved by his friends and document these days with beauty and honesty. During these times Greg's posts take on a special resonance and give insight in how to find joy amidst difficulty. Reading Greg's posts are over fifty members of our community.
​152 Happy Days contains occasional strong language. ​

152 Happy Days takes place between March and August of 2014.
AlvegoRoot creates work on the traditional lands of the Anishinaabek, Haudenosaunee, Lūnaapéewak and Attawandaron peoples as well as nations both recorded and unrecorded who have been caretakers of this land for time immemorial.  These lands are connected with the London Township and Sombra Treaties of 1796 and the Dish with One Spoon Covenant Wampum.
