SUMMARY:“The Flock: Chapter 6” Open Studio Showing with Skyla Schreter Dance 
DESCRIPTION:“The Flock: Chapter 6” Open Studio Showing with Skyla Schreter Dance\nDate & Time: Saturday\, October 24\, 2026\, 2-3PM\nFREE! Community Program. Registration encouraged.   \nSkyla Schreter Dance (SSD) returns to Bethany Arts Community for their second artist in residence\, creating the final chapter of their original\, narrative dance work\, “The Flock.” Join SSD at Bethany Arts Community for a behind-the-scenes look into the creation process of “The Flock.” This informal studio showing will begin with an introduction to the larger project\, followed by a short open rehearsal with the dancers working through the newly-created choreographic material. At the end of the showing\, SSD will present a premiere of the “first draft” of Chapter 6 – the 13-minute final chapter in the story; created entirely during the company’s Artist Residency at Bethany Arts Community. \nChoreographer & Artistic Director: Skyla Schreter\nRehearsal Director: Craig Wasserman\nDancers: Hannah Straney\, Piper Dye\, Cristina Moya-Palacios\, Kimie Parker\, Kristina Desjardins\, Mikayla Lambert\, Emily Mistretta  \nAbout “The Flock”\n“The Flock” is an original narrative dance work from Hudson Valley-based dance company Skyla Schreter Dance. As a powerful synthesis of artistic mediums and disciplines\, and inspired by the best-selling novella “Jonathan Livingston Seagull\,” “The Flock” tells the story of a restless young seagull named Jo\, who dreams and strives to transcend the limitations imposed upon her by the rigid traditions of her home Flock.  In her relentless quest to perfect her ability of flight and turn it into an art form and more than just a means to consume\, she breaks with both her family and The Flock\, and is banished and exiled for her transgressions. Rather than limiting her\, this opens up a whole new world of self-exploration and artistry\, where Jo is free to learn and grow\, build a new community rooted in her values\, and live the life she chooses for herself.  “The Flock” is currently mid-development\, and includes both live dance and film elements; including a short film “Jo’s Dream” filmed on Bannerman Island in the Hudson River\, in partnership with the Bannerman Castle Trust.  \nAbout Skyla Schreter Dance\nSkyla Schreter Dance combines classical ballet with a contemporary aesthetic to convey modern-day stories and perspectives. Taking an inter-disciplinary approach\, our work often integrates film\, visual art and musical collaboration to expand the common boundaries of dance as a presentational art form\, while maintaining the body as the primary instrument for creation and expression. Founded and led by choreographer and director Skyla Schreter\, SSD is a collective of dancers\, designers and collaborators working across professional dance\, music and visual arts to connect and elevate our shared human experience through creation.  \nTo support or learn more about the project\, and to keep up with Skyla Schreter Dance\, visit: https://www.skylaschreterdance.com/projects/the-flock
