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: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:“Our Wounds\, Our Power” Work-in-Process Showing with Skyla Schreter Dance
DESCRIPTION:“Our Wounds\, Our Power” Work-in-Process Showing with Skyla Schreter Dance\nDate & Time: Sunday\, June 30\, 2024 3:30-4:30PM\nFee: FREE! Community Program \nJoin Skyla Schreter Dance at Bethany Arts Community for a presentation showcasing the creative process of their newest project “Our Wounds\, Our Power.” Choreographer Skyla Schreter will lead the company dancers through a live demonstration of the various artistic influences that form the foundation of the project’s source inspiration. Showcasing excerpts of the new choreography created while in residence at BAC\, the presentation will illustrate how the particular artistic inspirations for the project – encompassing poetry\, painting\, costuming and music – come to life in the creation of the choreography. \nThis residency is supported by the New York State Council on the Arts Individual Artist Award – Choreography Commission. \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. Community Programs are free engagements open to the public and/or in collaboration with a local community partner. \nAbout “Our Wounds\, Our Power”\nPulling inspiration from feminist pioneers across artistic disciplines and scientific fields\, “Our Wounds\, Our Power’‘ examines healing as a continuum that is in constant flux\, rather than an end result that can be achieved. \nIn their residency at BAC\, Skyla Schreter Dance will experiment with forming a collective identity that traverses through various psychological\, sensational and emotional stages of healing\, particularly related to their experiences as womxn; investigating and interweaving the transitory nature of a cyclical process that is ever-evolving. \nChoreography for “Our Wounds\, Our Power” will be created by Skyla Schreter\, in collaboration with the dancers of Skyla Schreter Dance. “Our Wounds\, Our Power” references\, quotes and integrates artistic work from Mira Calix\, Adrienne Rich\, Michelle Silver and Lauren Carmen. \nAbout The Company\nSkyla Schreter (choreographer & artistic director)\nSkyla Schreter is a New-York based choreographer and multi-disciplinary artist\, formerly a dancer with San Francisco Ballet for six seasons\, where she created original roles in works by contemporary ballet choreographers including William Forsythe\, Justin Peck\, Cathy Marston and David Dawson\, to name a few.

SUMMARY:Hudson Holes: A Community Mini Golf Project Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Join Max Lazarowitz in building and devising Hudson Holes: A Community Mini Golf Project! Feel free to join us for one or all of the Community Workshops! \nWorkshops will be held on June 9\, June 15\, June 23\, and July 14\, 2024 from 1-4PM! Sign up above for June 23’s workshop. \nRSVP Encouraged\, Walk-ins Welcome!  \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!

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!

Her lyrics explore the dark corridors of the human experience\, ultimately revealing the light seeping through the cracks. Piano ballad confessionals and thought-provoking lyrics punctuated by rhythmic guitar are equally at home in her sets and are delivered like smooth bourbon that hints at bygone eras while being firmly planted in the present. \nJohn Mervini\nBorn in California\, raised in New Mexico. John Mervini delivers a soulful blend of country\, blues\, roots rock\, and gospel driven by his masterful songwriting and his powerful\, sometimes thunderous\, yet also often delicate voice.\nWebsite: johnmervini.com\nAvailable on Spotify/Apple Music/etc\nIG:@thejohnmervini\nFB: @johnmerviniofficial\nYouTube: @thejohnmervini \n

SUMMARY:Bronze/Silver Metal Clay Jewelry with Barbara Kirby
DESCRIPTION:Silver NEW Student Registration\nSilver RETURNING Student Registration\nBronze NEW Student Registration\nBronze RETURNING Student Registration \nBronze & Silver Metal Clay Jewelry\nInstructor: Barbara Kirby\n#\, Dates and Times of Class: 4 Sessions – May 4\, 11\, 18\, 2024 11AM-2PM\, June 1\, 2024 11AM-1PM (No Class May 25)\nCost: Silver New Student Early Bird (Until 4/1) $350/Regular $375\nSilver Returning Student Early Bird (Until 4/1) $300/Regular $325\nBronze New Student Early Bird (Until 4/1) $255/Regular $270\nBronze Returning Student Early Bird (Until 4/1) $225/Regular $250\nAges: 16+ \nBronze & Silver Metal Clay Jewelry will be taught co-currently\, please be aware that there is different pricing for returning and new students and for silver and bronze materials. If you have any questions\, please reach out to Lexi (alexar@bethanyarts.org). \nDuring the classes\, participants learn the process of making jewelry using Bronze or Silver Metal Clay. Students need no previous knowledge or experience and will have lots of fun creating stunning pieces. \nMetal Clay is a unique crafting medium made from microscopic metal particles mixed with an organic binder and water. It’s easy to use\, fun\, non-toxic and is safe to work with one’s hands. \nOriginating in Japan in 1990\, metal clay can be shaped just like any soft clay\, by hand or using molds. After drying\, the clay can be fired in a variety of ways such as in a kiln\, with a handheld gas torch\, or on a gas stove\, depending on the type of clay and the metal in it. The binder burns away\, leaving the pure sintered metal. Shrinkage of between 8% and 10%. \nAbout Barbara Kirby\nBarbara graduated from Webster University with a BFA. She studied at the Boca Museum of Art School and the Westchester Arts Workshop. She has also studied at the Castle Hill Art School in North Truro\, MA. and the Metalwerx School for Jewelry & Metal Arts in Boston. She continues to study with master metal clay jewelry artist Terry Kovalcik. \nBarbara has a 20-year background in metalsmithing and metal clay jewelry. She has led workshops and classes throughout the Northeast and Florida. Her unique handmade jewelry is available for sale at local venues and on Etsy.com. \nBarbara maintains her jewelry studio in Ossining\, NY. \nWebsite: https://www.bkirbyjewelry.com/about \n
