After the "work-in-progress" performance, the artists held a Q & A feedback session. They answered questions from the audience about the pieces, as well as listened deeply to the comments each person had to say about the project, and what it meant to them.

Third, the artists and audience members alike separated into small story-sharing circles, in which they shared stories from their life experiences. Whether as immigrants or children of immigrants to this country, the stories drew direct links between everyone in the room.

On May 8th, 2004, the artists and community participants from Phase 1 of "To All Relations: Sacred Moon Songs" came back together to expand on their performance piece, as well as begin the process of gathering stories from the surrounding communities. What they have created reflects their journeys through their own lives' stories, as well as the images evoked from the stories of others around them.
