I’m thrilled to be part of IF: Encore, a series of signposts installed throughout the University of Guelph Arboretum featuring QR codes, which you can scan to relive incredible improvisational performances filmed in those locations and originally shown at previous iterations of the IF Improvisation Festival. From the Wild Goose Woods Trail to the Arboretum Centre, you can venture through the Arboretum at your own pace to track down performances by Matt Brubeck & Ben Grossman, François Houle, Standpartners, Richard Burrows, and Reza Yazdanpanah. Check out the map located below for more info on signpost locations.

PLEASE NOTE: As of October 15th, full vaccination is required to attend any organized event at U of G. Please complete the COVID screening form before attending: https://uoguelph.eu.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_4Ntfm8k1oXAPssm
DIRECTIONS:

The 1 pm launch live performance by Richard Burrows and Daniel Morphy will take place on the Memorial Forest boardwalk in the University of Guelph Arboretum. If you are arriving by car, park at the campus entrance, not the College St. entrance—follow the Wall-Custance Memorial Forest Trail signs (and the music!) to the boardwalk nearby. This is an accessible, open-air space. If you are walking, biking, or rolling to our event, you can follow this Google Map to find the best route, and use the photos below for reference.

The IF Encore Installations are located throughout the Arboretum. Refer to the map below for installation sites:
