SUMMARY:The Camp of Witchcraft and Wizardry
DESCRIPTION:The Camp of Witchcraft and Wizardry\nPresented by Theater O!\nJuly 8 – July 26\, 2024 – Three One-Week Sessions \nRegister Here!\nTheater O is back at Bethany in the Summer of 2024 with our much-loved Harry Potter-themed\, arts-based camp.  Participants will be sorted into houses\, and participate in a House Cup competition. Each day participants will do a creative writing assignment with their house\, play Harry Potter improv games\, create a work of art\, and play quidditch!  The Camp runs Monday-Friday\, 9 am – 3 pm.  Campers bring their own NUT-FREE lunch and snack\, and lunch and snack are refrigerated.  Campers must bring water bottles. \nFAQ\nQ: My child is not yet 7\, but they love Harry Potter!  Can they attend?  \nA: If your child knows that Dumbledore dies\, or you think if they find out at camp it will not turn into an existential crisis\, yes. \nQ: Are the activities different from week to week?\nA: The structure of each week is the same in that every week campers carve wands\, write and illustrate Quibbler articles\, create Patronus puppets\, and participate in daily House challenges.  The activities themselves are projects that are kid-driven.  So while they will write a Quibbler article each week\, their partners and prompts will be different. \nQ: How much time do you spend outside?\nA: About 50/50 in pre-covid times.  During the pandemic\, we spend as much time outside as possible. \n

SUMMARY:SPARK
DESCRIPTION:SPARK\nJuly 12-14\, 2024 – One Weekend Only! \nSPARK is a thought-provoking and inspiring theatrical experience that captures the beauty and the drama of life and transformation. Told through the voices of 10 women\, SPARK is a tapestry of multi-layered personal stories\, movement and soul-stirring music covering identity\, loss\, love and growth. \nCreated by Tami McCarthy (Actor\, Artistic Director\, Writer\, Producer)\, SPARK is a profound journey into the depths of the human experience inspired by Tami’s own life. The experience weaves together a chorus of unique and powerful voices as the women in the cast reveal true life-changing moments when divine intervention or instinct takes control\, leading them to a spark that nurtured their spirit and lit the path ahead. \nSPARK serves as a mirror\, highlighting how we are all connected as it prompts audience members to reflect on their own moments of self-discovery while celebrating the resiliency of the human spirit. At times deeply jarring\, but ultimately uplifting\, SPARK encourages viewers to confront the complexities of life and\, in doing so\, find a sense of euphoric liberation. Together\, we reveal the malleable nature and complexity of the human experience\, and share in a revelatory moment that we are not alone.\n \nCreated\, Written\, Produced by Tami McCarthy. Creative Team: Directed by: Beth Spitalny\, Serena Norr\, Co-Writer and Co-Producer\, Music by Becki Davis and Lynne Barasch. Featuring Spoken Word Performances by Serena Norr\, Violet Benny\, Luz Michelle\, Monique Ford\, Shelley Molad\, Sarah Sanders\, Lynne Barasch\, Tami McCarthy\, and Shauna Lane; with a special performance by Inez Wilson and special appearance by Medicine Woman + Spiritual Healer Vasiliki Lagoudis. \nShowtimes\nFriday\, July 12\, 2024 8PM\nSaturday\, July 13\, 2024 2PM\nSaturday\, July 13\, 2024 8PM\nSunday\, July 14\, 2024 2PM \n$35 General Admission/$30 Senior/Student \nTickets for this show are non-refundable.

SUMMARY:Hudson Holes: A Community Mini Golf Project - at Ossining Waterfront!
DESCRIPTION:Join Max Lazarowitz in building and devising Hudson Holes: A Community Mini Golf Project! \nThere will be no workshop at BAC on July 14. Join Max at the Ossining waterfront to learn more about Hudson Holes! \nMy name is Max Lazarowitz and I am in 9th grade at Ossining High School. I have lived in this town my entire life and I am committed to helping the Ossining community through creative projects. During the pandemic\, I proposed to the town to build a mini golf course to spread awareness about climate change. Not only is mini golf one of my favorite activities\, but it is fun and affordable for people of all ages. \nAfter submitting a letter and drawings to the town\, I was asked to participate in the Ossining Earth Day Festival and worked with a carpenter to build 2 prototype holes. The interest was overwhelming and after having it there twice (2022 and 2023)\, Bethany Arts Community (BAC) and our Town Supervisor and Mayor reached out to me to discuss next steps. This led to a connection with an organization called Submerse NY whose mission is to fund three local art projects that focus on the rising concern of flooding in the Hudson Valley. After a few meetings with everyone and sharing my plans and vision for this course\, I was the recipient of a grant from Submerse to make this happen. I am so excited for this opportunity! \nEach hole will be designed around the topic of climate change and the impact of increased flooding on our area. While I am bringing this project to Ossining\, I am hoping that everyone in our community and schools (kids and adults) will help me create it!  My goal is to use as many repurposed and recycled materials to build the course. I will be leading workshops through Bethany Arts Community so people of all ages can join me in creating different aspects of each hole. Workshops will include brainstorming\, painting\, and constructing!
