SUMMARY:"meditation on what America+utopia might =" Work-in-Process Showing with Mary Armentrout
DESCRIPTION:meditation on what America+utopia might = Work-in-Process Showing with Mary Armentrout\nDate & Time: Saturday\, September 21\, 2024 6-7:30PM \nMary Armentrout presents a work-in-progress showing of her newest project: meditation on what America+utopia might =. This dance-theater performance-installation weaves together a de-construction of some of the colonialist tendencies still embedded in current American culture through the central figure of “the lady in the black dress\,” with an absurdist but deeply serious dive into the fraught but beautiful tendency of Americans to yearn for utopia\, which historically has not turned out particularly well for us – yet! “The lady in the black dress” is a metaphorical device\, a ghostly\, historically illogical\, Victorian presence with meta-tendencies towards humor\, towards complication\, towards philosophical inquiry\, towards both communal reckoning and community making\, who engages her audiences in collective puzzling about how we get closer to the future we want from the pasts and presents we find ourselves enmeshed in. \nDuring this roving site specific performance installation\, the audience will visit several different spaces within the grounds of the BAC. Please wear shoes for easy walking\, we will be inside and outside on the lawn\, and there will be stairs. Please do not hesitate to let us know if you have mobility or disability issues or concerns; we aim to accommodate them\, email Julia at julias@bethanyarts.org. \nAbout Mary\nMary Armentrout is a San Francisco Bay Area-based experimental choreographer\, performance artist\, videographer\, teacher\, and the director of the Mary Armentrout Dance Theater. Armentrout calls her genre-mixing site-specific works performance installations; recent awards include an Isadora Duncan Dance Award and an EMPAC commission. Her works problematize the lived experience of intentionality and presence\, and include the audience’s role as a key element of the performance equation. She installs work in both conventional and site-specific venues\, and MADT has been presented at numerous venues all over the San Francisco Bay Area\, as well as across the US and the UK\, Europe\, and China\, recently touring to universities across the states and the UK\, as well as the Brighton Fringe and the San Francisco International Arts Festival. For her EMPAC commission at RPI\, she created a site specific piece\, listening creates an opening\, that journeyed from the RPI campus through the town of Troy to the banks of the Hudson River\, which subsequently toured to the city blocks around ODC Theater in San Francisco\, and through the Sarah Lawrence College campus. \nShe teaches a variety of movement\, composition and Feldenkrais modalities\, both to a thriving local community and as a guest artist nationally and internationally\, and was recently voted a “Best of the East Bay” dance teacher in the local independent newspaper The East Bay Express. She also is the organizer of the Dance Discourse Project\, an on-going series of artist-curated discussions on the Bay Area dance scene\, and co-curates the mixed performance salon The Milkbar at her home studio in Richmond CA \nThis event is a Residency Community Program. As part of a residency at BAC\, we ask each artist to build and facilitate a Community Program. Community Programs are a unique opportunity for both artists-in-residence and our local community to gather\, engage\, and be in conversation with one another through art.

SUMMARY:Everyone Has a Story to Tell! Storytelling Workshop with BAC Artist-in-Residence Kona Morris
DESCRIPTION:Everyone Has a Story to Tell! Storytelling Workshop\nwith BAC Artist-in-Residence Kona Morris\nDate & Time: Thursday\, September 26\, 7 – 8:30PM \nJoin writer and storyteller Kona Morris (The Moth\, RISK!) for a crafting workshop to generate story ideas and learn how to structure them for optimal audience engagement. Bring a notebook and your most vivid memories!   \nMore About The Workshop\nStorytelling is both unique and universal. Our stories are what make us stand out as individuals\, but also what allows us to relate and have empathy for one another. The desire to share our stories is in our DNA. For as long as our ancestors could speak\, they were telling each other stories—to entertain\, to share learned wisdoms\, and to process intense experiences. It is a medium like no other because it encompasses every person on the planet\, no matter their background\, field of study\, or walk of life.  \nIn this 90-minute workshop\, we will start with a “Story Mining” exercise that provides prompts to help you remember your most important stories. Then we will cover storytelling techniques and tools for structuring successful stories. We will talk about the importance of a strong ending\, and how to tailor it for your specific audience and purpose. You will leave this workshop with a list of your best stories—and with the inspiration and confidence to share them!   \nAbout Kona\nKona Morris is a writer\, storyteller\, and comedian. She has won The Moth StorySLAM in Los Angeles\, and she’s been featured on national podcasts such as RISK!\, Monkey Tooth\, and It’s Funny Now. Kona starred in Denver’s Live Drunk History Comedy Troupe\, and her short stories and articles have appeared in a variety of publications.  \nTo learn more about Kona: https://konamorris.com/  \nThis event is a Fall Multidisciplinary Residency Community Program. As part of a residency at BAC\, we ask each artist to build and facilitate a Community Program. Community Programs are a unique opportunity for both artists-in-residence and our local community to gather\, engage\, and be in conversation with one another through art.

She now explores these same themes through facilitated art-making and storytelling experiences.

SUMMARY:Lost My Mind\, But I Think You Have It (WIP Showing) with BAC Artist-in-Residence Matthew Flatley
DESCRIPTION:Lost My Mind\, But I Think You Have It (WIP Showing)\nwith BAC Artist-in-Residence Matthew Flatley\nDate & Time: Thursday\, October 3\, 2024 2-3:30PM \nPlease join us for a studio showing and discussion of Matthew Flatley’s current work-in-progress ‘Lost My Mind\, But I Think You Have It’. Inspired by the common saying ‘one step forward\, two steps back’\, the piece examines the habit of repeating old patterns that prevent us from moving forward in life\, and physically explores the various ways a single impulse can move the body through space. Utilizing micro-movements and hyper-segmentation of conventional pathways\, the choreography aims to simultaneously appear both formal and fractured. After the showing\, there will be an open discussion between the choreographer and audience members.  \nAbout Matthew\nMatthew Flatley is a Brooklyn based choreographer and visual artist.

SUMMARY:Sip & Stitch with BAC Artist-in-Residence Dawn Bisio - Green Drinks @ Sing Sing Kill Brewery
DESCRIPTION:Green Drinks: “Sip & Stitch”\nwith BAC Artist-in-Residence Dawn Bisio\nDate & Time: Thursday\, October 24\, 2024 7-9PM\nLocation: Sing Sing Kill Brewery – 75 Spring Street\, Ossining\, NY 10562 \nRegister Here!  \nLearn Sashiko! Sashiko is a traditional Japanese embroidery technique used for repairing clothes and creating a unique style. In this hands-on workshop\, visual artist\, Dawn Bisio\, demonstrates how to patch a hole and two basic stitches: the running stitch and the cross stitch. All materials are included and you will complete the workshop with your very own patch to take home that you can use to decorate or repair a piece of clothing of your own! In partnership with Green Ossining and Sing Sing Kill Brewery.     \n*If you’d like to bring a piece of scrap fabric from home\, a loose weave cotton or linen is recommended.   \nAbout Dawn\nDawn Bisio is a Korean American painter and installation artist based in the Mohawk Valley of NY. She is best known for her colorful\, multi-layered acrylic abstract paintings and her contemplative mixed media installations. Her work also delves into printmaking\, gestural paintings\, encaustics\, and illuminated pieces in a range of scales and media. Aside from acrylic paint\, she preferences the use of fabric\, natural materials\, and found objects. While her paintings and other 2D works often begin loosely and spontaneously and develop in an improvisational fashion\, her installations are carefully thought-out pieces involving significant planning\, engineering\, and exploration of a specific theme\, such as identity\, the environment\, and women.  \nDuring her residency at BAC\, Dawn will be working on an installation\, called Threads of Tomorrow: Fashioning Sustainability. Clothing over-production and fast fashion cause enormous pollution from carbon emissions\, polluted water\, and overflowing landfills. As a self-proclaimed recovering clothes horse\, this installation is Dawn’s way of helping to protect our precious natural resources. Using all recycled fabrics/clothing as a canvas for this installation\, Dawn will have eight “paintings”- two rows of four paintings facing each other\, with a large sculpture of a coat with tails in forward motion in the middle\, as if it were an invisible figure running down the hall. Though the piece is about recycling textiles and protecting the environment\, it’s also about freedom; freedom for a brighter future and freedom of the mind to change and adapt.  \nFind Dawn:\nwww.dawnbisio.art \nInstagram: @dawnbisioart  \nThis event is a Fall Multidisciplinary Residency Community Program. As part of a residency at BAC\, we ask each artist to build and facilitate a Community Program.

SUMMARY:Open Rehearsal with Full Circle Souljahs
DESCRIPTION:Open Rehearsal with Full Circle Souljahs\nDate & Time: Tuesday\, December 17\, 2024 6:30-7:30 PM \nJoin Full Circle Souljahs for a special open rehearsal as we continue to develop “Algo-rhythm” (previously: Wus Poppin)\, a celebration of the intergenerational exchange within New York City’s Poppin community. Legendary Boogiers/Poppers Kwikstep and Rokafella are leading a collective of dancers from various generations to explore the balance between freestyle and choreography. This work touches on themes such as isolation and the everyday life of a street dancer\, offering a glimpse into the soul of hip-hop culture. \nAfter the rehearsal\, stay for a Q&A where the Kwikstep and Rolafella will discuss the integration of freestyle and choreography\, how this style of dance differs from other hip-hop forms\, and the importance of passing knowledge between generations. Whether you’re a dance enthusiast\, hip-hop supporter\, or curious about the creative process\, this is an opportunity to witness the work unfold and engage with the artists shaping it! \n\nAbout Full Circle Productions\nFull Circle Productions\, founded in ’92 by Kwikstep established as a non profit in ’96 with the help of Rokafella and Violet Galagarza is embarking on another year of cutting-edge Hip-Hop on local and international stages\, streets\, cyphas\, and the industry. \nUnder the direction of Kwikstep and Rokafella\, the company aims to provide training to aspiring Hip hop dancers in New York City and local areas with a particular focus on the cultural roots\, the trajectory and growth of the classic styles and how Hip-hop is interpreted globally and commercially. \nFull Circle provided an equitable environment for women to train and perform breaking repertoire comparable to their male counterparts on and off stage. Members\, who range in age from teens to early fifties\, help to create a network of interactive empowerment for elders and youth. Kwikstep and Rokafella offer multi faceted opportunities to learn about NYC Hip-hop history\, the industry and life lessons which in time foster a self sufficient artistic world of young leaders\, integral masters and elders. Full Circle has hosted international Hip hop contemporary companies visiting NYC and represented Hip-Hop at places once intangible to the street vibe such as The Library of Congress in Washington D.C.\, where they have the credit of being the first Hip-Hop group to grace the stage. Their repertoire of soulful resilience brings the universal sense of struggle as a common link that unites us all. \nVarious music videos\, national dance tours\, commercials and films feature members and students of Full Circle as a testament to how the directors empower dancers to balance both community and commercial work. Full Circle has inspired young dancers to host their own open-dance sessions\, impacted the theater realm with street aesthetics\, shifted dance festival programming to uplift Hip hop’s cultural elements and most importantly stepped into educational forums with the message that Hip-hop is a continuum of afro diasporic social expression despite the mainstream’s superficial portrayals. Producing a documentary about women in Breaking/Street dance\, creating evening length as well as short theatrical pieces\, offering cultural workshops and planning seasonal dance events comprise the variety of programs Full Circle offers to support the cycles of growth in the community while paying respects to our ancestors. \nFind out more at www.fullcirclesouljahs.com
