SUMMARY:Jo Kreiter - Flyaway Productions Performance of Apparatus of Repair
DESCRIPTION:As part of BAC’s Season of Justice\, Jo Kreiter joins us in October to develop and present “Apparatus of Repair”\, the culminating work in her Decarceration Series. REPAIR brings focus to the concept of restorative justice and is grounded in the experiences of people who have been harmed or caused harm. A restorative justice process operates from a belief that the path to justice lies in problem solving and healing rather than punitive isolation. The project is deeply personal and challenges creator Jo Kreiter to expose her own vulnerability\, as she is a woman with an incarcerated loved one. REPAIR transforms the intimate healing process of restorative justice into an outdoor public performance\, danced in the air on the facade of BAC. \nOctober 6 – 8\, 2022 Thursday – Saturday at 7:30 p.m (Public performances)\nOctober 7 – Friday\, 12:30 (special performance for Ossining School District students only)\nFREE EVENT (donations are welcomed to offset costs of the program) DONATE\nRegistration required\nREGISTER \nFlyaway Productions Videos \nResidency Dates: October 4 – 11 \nBio: Flyaway Productions democratizes public space. We make dances in unlikely places\, activating the sides of buildings above bleak city streets. Our site-specific dances impact neighborhoods because they unfold at the very place where conflict lives. For us\, a building is a witness. It holds the complexity of a neighborhood’s history in its “hands\,” I-beams\, or concrete walls. Flyaway’s tools include coalition building\, an intersectional feminist lens\, and a body-based push against the constraints of gravity. \nFounded by Jo Kreiter in 1996\, Flyaway Productions mission supports the integration of experimental forms with political content; the support of women and gender expansive artists\, where women’s voices remain an underserved element of public culture; and the use of spectacle/flight/suspended apparatus to expand choreographic language. Recent coalition partners include the Museum of African Diaspora\, Prison Renaissance\, Essie Justice Group\, Local 2\, Bend the Arc Jewish Action\, Community Works and UC Hastings College of the Law. \nWe have been supported by Guggenheim and Rauschenberg Foundation fellowships\, NEFA’s National Dance Project\, the National Endowment for the Arts\, Center for Cultural Innovation\, New Music USA\, The Gerbode Foundation\, MAP\, the Creative Work Fund\, the Wattis\, Kenneth Rainin and Miranda Lux Foundations\, CA Arts Council\, Grants for the Arts and the SF Arts Commission and have received seven IZZY awards from the SF dance community.  The SF Bay Guardian describes Flyaway as makers of “art at the heart of the democratic ideal.” \nAbout the Decarceration Series: From 2017-2023\, Flyaway is creating The Decarceration Trilogy: Dismantling the Prison Industrial Complex One Dance at a Time. The Decarceration Trilogy is part of a national wave of ongoing political action to expose the devastating effects of prison on American citizens.  It draws together political denunciation and a spectacular physical language across a series of large scale\, site-specific dances. The Trilogy is rooted in collaboration with community organizations and people directly impacted by incarceration.  The project is a deeply personal and challenges Artistic Director Jo to expose her own vulnerability\, as she is a woman with an incarcerated loved one. \nRESIDENCY ARTISTS\nJo Kreiter\nMegan Lowe\nJhia Jackson\nSaharla Vetch\nSonshere Giles\nMaryStarr Hope\nMaddy MADlines Clifford \nImage: Chairs photo by RJ Muna: pictured MaryStarr Hope \nAll tickets to Apparatus of Repair are offered at a subsidized rate due to generous contributions from the National Endowment for the Arts\, New York State Council on the Arts\, New England Foundation for the Arts: National Dance Project\, APAP Arts Forward\, Humanities NY\, Arts Westchester\, and numerous individual donors.

SUMMARY:Artist in Residence: Marcie LaCerte Artist Talk and Work-in-Progress Screening
DESCRIPTION:Animator Marcie LaCerte will be sharing work-in-progress material of her upcoming animated short film\, The Pleasure-Dome\, and will be delivering an artist’s talk about her work.  \nREGISTER\nResidency Plan:\nI will be making progress on my upcoming independent animated short titled “The Pleasure-Dome.” I am combining digital character animation with hand-drawn\, colored pencil backgrounds. I will be using the facilities and the 25-acre grounds for inspiration (as much of my film is set in plant-filled landscapes) and for finishing up my film.  \nBio:\nMarcie LaCerte is a Chinese-American animator and art director based in New York City. She is currently a Creative Culture fellow at the Jacob Burns Film Center and is working on two narrative short films.   \nHer clients include Vox\, NPR\, Great Big Story\, PBS\, and Quartz. Her films have been recognized by Vimeo Staff Picks\, The New Yorker\, Ottawa International Animation Festival\, GLAS\, AFI Docs\, and more. She has given talks at the CalArts Experimental Animation program\, the Living Room Light Exchange (New York)\, and the Light Grey Art Lab Residency.  \nShe is interested in making films that use metaphor\, surrealism\, and comedy to examine personal experiences and feelings. Her dreamlike environments reflect the internal psychological state of her characters\, and her stories are often structured around journeys through these otherworldly landscapes. Her work explores themes of isolation\, creativity\, obsession\, and the absurdity of modern life. She is also interested in producing interactive multimedia art through game design or web-based hypertext. In her free time\, she enjoys thrift shopping\, listening to podcasts\, and thinking about the internet.  \n  \n\n\n\n\n\nResidencies and programs at Bethany Arts Community are made possible by the New York State Council on the Arts with the support of the Governor’s office and the New York State Legislature\, the National Endowment for the Arts\, Arts Westchester\, and numerous individual donors. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

SUMMARY:Artist in Residence: Amber Ray Snyder Create for Star Stuff Stories Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Join Amber in the creation of a Star Stuff Story. The microphone is your mask and you are a player! Share your voice into the microphone OR just witness how audio storytelling works. With some creative play and collaborative writing\, we will cast some characters and record your voice for the Star Stuff Stories podcast.  \nREGISTER\nResidency Plan:\nAmber Ray Snyder comes to BAC with microphones and sound editing software to further the audio stories library of her original podcast series\, Star Stuff Stories. In an attempt to explore and give light to other voices\, Amber hopes to collect more stories from the Bethany community and give amplification to experiences other than her own. While she plans to arrive with stories to potentially record she also hopes to leave with stories written and recorded by the community. All with sound effects and original music. This is a place where dreams live while you’re awake. Welcome to Star Stuff Stories!  \nBio:\nAmber Ray Snyder is a Chicago based artist and is the founder of The Eclipse Show (on YouTube) and Star Stuff Stories (on Spotify and Apple Podcasts). With 20 plus years’ experience as a stage actor\, Amber has most recently invested her creative time into filmmaking and audio storytelling. She has written and directed five short films since 2018 including an adaptation of Edgar Allan Poe’s The Raven (EVERMORE NEVERMORE) which was rewarded “Best Adapted Film” at the Edgar Allan Poe Film Festival of West Virginia (2021) and was accepted into 7 film festivals across the United States. Filmmaking aside\, her creation of Star Stuff Stories was born in 2022 and is complete with sound effects\, original music\, original stories and a variety of voices\, all told very à la radio play style. Her goal is to use audio storytelling as a platform for voices from all walks of life. An opportunity to pass on a point of view that might be valuable to young and grown minds alike. With the modern world being full of screens\, Amber hopes to be a part of creating a space for the “screens” inside of our mind\, through audio. \n\n\n\n\n\nResidencies and programs at Bethany Arts Community are made possible by the New York State Council on the Arts with the support of the Governor’s office and the New York State Legislature\, the National Endowment for the Arts\, Arts Westchester\, and numerous individual donors. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

SUMMARY:Artist in Residence: Monalisa Gharavi Language Pieces Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Participants are invited to grapple with language as matter and material\, and in sustained artistic lineages. How does language fizz\, slip\, crack\, and sparkle with material presence? Beyond traditional genres of creative writing\, how do language forms vex the ways we have taken authorship and audience as understood positions? Our explorations will open toward ways of knowing and unknowing media\, extending beyond individualist notions of the “self” to undo\, camouflage\, or de-personalize\, and then re-energize\, the processes of making art and meaning in the public arena. Each participant leaves the final workshop having created\, restaged\, reworked\, “corrected\,” or annotated a significant work\, either their own or that of another artist. Feel free to bring your own writing work\, either printed or digital.  \nREGISTER\nResidency Plan:\nThe artist will produce chapters toward The Book of Disbelonging\, an experimental literary volume conceptually invoking the reverse of the seal of the U.S.\, “E pluribus unum” (out of many\, one) to pose instead\, “Ex uno\, plures”: out of one\, many. She will also deliver a public-facing multi-genre creative/critical writing workshop.  \nBio:\nMaryam Monalisa Gharavi is an artist\, poet\, and theorist whose work explores the interplay between aesthetic and political valences in the public domain. Solo/group exhibitions\, performances\, and expanded publications include Nottingham Contemporary\, Pioneer Works\, Parasol Unit\, Serpentine Cinema\, Framer Framed\, Townhouse Gallery of Contemporary Art\, Museum of Fine Arts Boston\, New Museum\, Pacific Film Archive\, Sonic Acts\, Triple Canopy\, Experimental Media and Performing Arts Center\, The Poetry Project\, Women and Performance\, Circumference\, among others.   \nShe completed a Ph.D. in Comparative Literature and Film & Visual Studies at Harvard University and an M.F.A. in Film/Video at Milton Avery Graduate School of the Arts at Bard College\, and held a postdoctoral Fulbright and Visiting Professorship at Birzeit University. She was a Lecturer at New York University and Northeastern University from 2019 to 2021; at Harvard University from 2012 to 2017; and has served as visiting faculty/studio artist at Valand Academy\, Cambridge School of Art\, Anglia Ruskin University\, Bard Microcollege\, among others.   \nBook publications include a translation of Waly Salomão’s Algaravias: Echo Chamber (Ugly Duckling Presse)\, nominated for a PEN Award for Poetry in Translation; The Distancing Effect (BlazeVOX); and Bio (Inventory Press). Artist books/chapbooks include Apparent Horizon 2 (Bonington Gallery); Alphabet of an Unknown City (Belladonna*)\, Secret Catalan Poem (The Elephants)\, Mohammad Wikipedia Book (Recess)\, and Dictionary of Night\, co-authored with Mirene Arsanios (Ashkal Alwan). She was editor at The New Inquiry between 2012 and 2017\, and is author of the open text South/South. She founded Oil Research Group (ORG) as a one-woman artist collective exploring the relationship between oil and data.  \nShe lives and works in New York  \n\n\n\n\n\nResidencies and programs at Bethany Arts Community are made possible by the New York State Council on the Arts with the support of the Governor’s office and the New York State Legislature\, the National Endowment for the Arts\, Arts Westchester\, and numerous individual donors. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

SUMMARY:Artist in Residence: Francesca Montanile Self(ie) Workshop
DESCRIPTION:This workshop will use artmaking as a catalyst for storytelling and connection between participants around the themes of pleasure and sensuality\, and connection to self-image. Selfies taken with a phone are a super common way of representing ourselves these days\, and this workshop asks us to get back to the tactile and create a selfie using traditional mediums: pencil\, pen\, paper\, maybe paint. The medium of creation will be up to participants\, and all are welcome to bring their own supplies if they have a practice they’d like to work within. In my art-making\, much of my work deals with sensuality\, intimacy and relationships\, and unlearning shame. Creating art around those topics- not just on my own- but in community with other artists\, has done more than anything else in helping me define my own values around how I see myself and others\, the way I approach communication of all kinds\, and how I move through the world. This workshop aims to bring that experience to everyone who attends. All levels of art-making experience welcome!  \nREGISTER\nResidency Plan:\nFrancesca will be creating work toward a multi-disciplinary show\, hey you up?\, exploring modern intimacy and connection. She will be making work around her central questions across several mediums: creating drawings of digital artifacts\, like texts message chains\, making touchable rugs depicting selfies\, and exploring text and movement for a performance. This project revolves around the tension between digital/tactile\, private/public\, distance/connection\, & alienation/intimacy.  \nBio: \nFrancesca Montanile Lyons is a Philadelphia-based director\, performer\, and multi-disciplinary artist (drawing\, embroidery\, and most recently\, animation!). Her work across mediums seeks to disempower shame through playful honesty and voyeuristic delight. Her illustrations have been published in Prickly Pear Printing’s “Rescued” issue (2022) and Sought magazine’s Holiday Issue (2021). Francesca is Co-Artistic Director of Antigravity Performance Project\, a tristate devising company that makes original performance with non-theatrical texts. She conceived of\, wrote\, and directed Dear Diary LOL- a play made with the words of real-life diaries of teenage girls in the late 90s/early 2000s- premiered in the 2017 Philadelphia Fringe Festival\, followed by a run at FringeArts and two runs at the New Ohio in NYC in 2018. She is a member of Girl Poop\, a “delightfully weird” femme foursome specializing in Pussy Pop Rock: short\, high-octane ditties inspired by first-person experience set to simple and catchy beats. Other credits include directing Legal Tender by poet Kyle Dacuyan (Antigravity at AntFest 2019 and FringeArts 2020)\, All 100 Fires by Donna Oblongata (2019 National Tour)\, Fourth Quarter (First Person Arts Festival 2018)\, and Rough & Tumble (2018)\, as well as performing/co-creating The Hopefuls (a satirical punk-clown band\, 2016)\, Slaughter/ette (2015)\, and Nellie/Nellie (2014). MFA in Devised Performance from UArts/Pig Iron School (2016). BA in Theatre Arts & Performance Studies from Brown U (2011).  \n  \nResidencies and programs at Bethany Arts Community are made possible by the New York State Council on the Arts with the support of the Governor’s office and the New York State Legislature\, the National Endowment for the Arts\, Arts Westchester\, and numerous individual donors. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

SUMMARY:Artist In Residence: Jamison Curcio and Sarah Foucher Anthology of Us Work-in-Progress Showing
DESCRIPTION:Artists Jamison Curcio and Sarah Foucher plan to engage visiting artists and local community members through a work-in-progress and audience feedback community potluck dinner. They hope to create an interactive and welcoming space for all. In this\, they want to invite community members to dive into each other’s meals and deepen conversation with us and each other. Since their work is about relationships\, they will facilitate a space where everyone can come together and see one another.  \nREGISTER\nResidency Plan:\nWe intend to build on our current work-in-progress at least for now: anthology of us\, a collection of stories in the form of duets and solos. As collaborative artists we draw you into our relationship: deeply personal\, deeply rooted in change and commitment to each other and to our work. Our work is about our relationship and a dialogue of active listening and seeing one another. We are exploring trust\, curiosity\, sensitivity\, vulnerability\, and playfulness. We are creating a process that centers these values\, and pushes us to think about where we want to go. There are two elements that we would like to explore: our movement vocabulary\, and the audience response to the work.  \nBio:\nJamison and Sarah’s relationship began at Goucher College while working with choreographic mentor Loni Landon in The Last To Forgive (2019). This duet sparked an artistic collaboration between them which has developed into a strong relationship. In Fall 2020\, Jamison and Sarah presented the dance-film Holding US (2020) at TEDxMC2School\, engaging over twenty creatives in the discussion of isolation and what it means to be held. Now based in DC\, they have been developing their process and artistic vision. Their most recent work\, at least for now: anthology of us (2021) was presented at Fieldwork DC in Fall 2021 at Dance Place and the Koresh Dance Showcase in January 2022. Most recently\, they were guest teachers for “Foot in the Door”\, a 4-week class series at Dance Place in March of 2022.   \nJamison Curcio (she/her) is an interdisciplinary artist and community curator. Working at the intersections of performance art\, visual art\, and Black Feminism\, Jamison cultivates and fosters stories of liberation and reimagining through online exhibitions. As a graduate from Goucher College (’19)\, Jamison holds a BA in Performance Art for Social Justice and is the recipient of the 2019 Phi Beta Kappa Brooke Pierce Award in Fine Arts for choreography. Jamison has shown her most recent work HOW WE GET FREE at the 38th Annual Choreographers Showcase\, Celebrate 845\, MODArts Dance Collective: Collective Thread\, the Women in Dance Leadership Conference\, and the SECCA Black@Intersection Exhibition.   \nSarah Foucher (she/her) is currently working in arts education at Dance Place. She is originally from New Hampshire and is a recent graduate from Goucher College in Baltimore MD (2021) where she studied Women Gender and Sexuality Studies\, Creative Writing\, and Dance. Sarah has worked with artists including Loni Landon\, Urban Bush Women\, and Iquail Shaheed. In addition to making work for her students\, she and Jamison recently presented at the Koresh Artist Showcase. As an interdisciplinary artist\, performer\, and teacher\, she is interested in finding connection through meaningful processes.  \n  \nResidencies and programs at Bethany Arts Community are made possible by the New York State Council on the Arts with the support of the Governor’s office and the New York State Legislature\, the National Endowment for the Arts\, Arts Westchester\, and numerous individual donors. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

SUMMARY:Artist in Residence: Sandra Jackson-Opoku Black Rice: A Sino-Black Diaspora Presentation & Reading
DESCRIPTION:Sinologist\, Keisha Brown originated the term “Sino-Black relations” to describe historical connections between China and people of African descent. This presentation will explore some of the global contact zones and cultural experiences where China and Africa have intersected. This slide presentation will be followed by a reading from the novel-in-progress\, Black Rice and a brief Q&A session. \nThis event is for Ossiing High School Black Culture Club & Human Rights Club \nResidency Plan:\nBLACK RICE is a historical novel exploring centuries-old connections between China and people of African descent. In this family saga sprawling across five novella-length chapters\, a chorus of voices speak in the dramatic\, interior\, and epistolary monologue as the narrators tell their life stories aloud\, in thought\, or in writing. These encounters begin with an East African woman sold into concubinage in Ming Dynasty Guangzhou. A Cantonese descendant is later transported to Cuba in the 19th-century “coolie” trade to the Americas\, where he meets and marries an African-American woman. Additional generations flow from this descent: a boxer\, a blues singer\, and a descendant teaching in modern China. I will use a Bethany Arts residency to incorporate research findings and polish final revisions to prepare Black Rice for submission. \nBio:\nSandra Jackson-Opoku is the author of the award-winning novel\, The River Where Blood is Born and Hot Johnny (and the Women Whom Loved Him)\, an Essence Magazine Bestseller in Hardcover Fiction. She also co-edited the anthology\, Revise the Psalm: Work Celebrating the Writing of Gwendolyn Brooks. Her fiction\, nonfiction\, poetry\, and dramatic works are widely published and produced\, appearing in such outlets as Secrets\, An Oddsized Coffin\, eMerge Magazine\, Both Sides: Stories from the Border\, the Anthology of Appalachian Heritage\, storySouth\, Another Chicago Magazine\, New Daughters of Africa\, Ms. Magazine\, Ocotillo Review\, Obsidian\, the Chicago Humanities Festival\, Lifeline Theatre\, and many others. \nProfessional recognition includes a National Endowment for the Arts Fellowship\, the General Electric-Coordinating Council of Literary Magazines Award for Younger Writers\, an American Library Association Black Caucus Award for Fiction\, Ragdale Foundation US/Africa Writers Fellowship\, a William Randolph Hearst Research Visiting Fellowship at the American Antiquarian Society\, a listing in Newcity Lit50: Who Really Books in Chicago\, and an inaugural Esteemed Literary Artist Award from the Chicago Department of Cultural Affairs and Special Events.

SUMMARY:Cyanotype Workshop with Instructor\, Julia Swyers
DESCRIPTION:Join us Saturday\, September 17th\, 2022 11AM-2PM and learn to make cyanotype art prints for your home\, or to create greeting cards using plants from your own garden. \nAges: 8 years old and up\nCost: $50  \nREGISTER\nThe fairly simple\, traditional blueprint process is easily accessible for anyone\, including children. No artistic skills are necessary to create one-of-a-kind botanical prints.  This workshop class will cover the photosensitive chemistry\, how to coat your own paper\, and how to expose and develop the prints.  You will leave with your own handmade prints and the skills to make more.  \nChildren 8 years old and up are welcome to work with an adult chaperone.   \nInstructor Bio: \nJulia first learned the cyanotype process while studying photography at the School of Visual Arts.  She started making botanical cyanotypes at home as an activity to do with her young daughter using commercially available coated paper.   In her own art practice\, she began coating her own paper and experimenting with homemade cameras using the cyanotype printing process.  She has taught all types of learners\, from elementary children in schools to adults in workshops.  \nhttps://www.botanicalblue.com/

SUMMARY:Artist in Residence: L Feldman M13: Excerpt Sharing and Talkback
DESCRIPTION:L M Feldman will share excerpts and questions from her audacious – and timely – play-in-progress\, THE MERCURY 13 GUIDE TO GETTING OFF THE GROUND. An epic and muscular theatrical shakedown\, THE MERCURY 13 intertwines historical events\, imagined scenes\, fantastical moments\, physical feats\, and text plucked straight from the Congressional archive\, to unearth the story of thirteen female pilots who might have\, if the world had followed a different path\, been among our earliest astronauts. It asks: what does it take (as a woman\, a person of color\, a queer\, a disadvantaged citizen\, a human being) to get off the ground in this country? Even still. Join L as she shares new work and invites questions & answers\, thoughts & curiosities.  \nREGISTER\nResidency Plan: \nOver the last two years\, I’ve been writing a beast of a play called THE MERCURY 13 GUIDE TO GETTING OFF THE GROUND. It’s about 13 accomplished female pilots who in 1961 were being selected and tested as astronaut candidates… until NASA and the government suddenly squelched the program. And so – in the height of the Space Race\, the Cold War\, and the Civil Rights Movement – a Congressional Hearing was called to determine whether the U.S. should include women as astronauts… which suddenly pitted social progress against technological speed. Congress chose technological speed\, and promised to close the opportunity gap in time. The play braids together historical events\, imagined scenes\, fantastical moments\, physical feats\, and text plucked straight from the Congressional archive – as it follows these 13 female pilots\, who sacrifice nearly everything for an opportunity that seems within their grasp. At BAC\, I’ll finally get to dive into the significant rewrites I want to do on this play\, and to emerge with a comprehensive new draft that’s workshop-ready for actors.  \nBio:\nL M Feldman is a queer\, GNC\, feminist playwright who writes theatrically adventurous\, physically evocative\, intimate\, inquisitive\, ensemble-driven plays. Plays that are dynamic\, honest\, brave\, and the smallest bit impossible. Plays that transcend into an experience.   \nSo far\, her body of work includes THRIVE\, OR WHAT YOU WILL [AN EPIC] ~ THE MERCURY 13 GUIDE TO GETTING OFF THE GROUND ~ ANOTHER KIND OF SILENCE ~ SCRIBE\, OR THE SISTERS MILTON\, OR ELEGY FOR THE UNWRITTEN ~ THE EGG-LAYERS ~ GRACE\, OR THE ART OF CLIMBING ~ A PEOPLE [A MOSAIC PLAY] ~ TROPICAL SECRETS\, OR ALL THE FLUTES IN THE SEA ~ and 7 full-length ensemble-devised works.  \nL has been nominated for the Wendy Wasserstein Prize\, Stavis Playwright Award\, New York Innovative Theatre Award\, Doric Wilson Independent Playwright Award\, and twice for the Susan Smith Blackburn Prize. And she’s ongoingly grateful to have been a fellow at MacDowell\, the Playwrights Realm\, and the Dramatists Guild\, and a core writer with InterAct Theatre\, Orbiter 3\, and (currently) The Playwrights’ Center.   \nAn alum of the Yale School of Drama and the New England Center for Circus Arts\, L is also a contemporary circus artist. She has performed duo trapeze at festivals around the world\, and has dramaturged works of circus-theater for ensembles around the country. She loves theater that moves\, and circus that tells stories.   \nL has lived in seven cities and is now based in Philadelphia\, where she teaches both playwriting and circus\, writes and devises plays\, and trains handstands.  \nResidencies and programs at Bethany Arts Community are made possible by the New York State Council on the Arts with the support of the Governor’s office and the New York State Legislature\, the National Endowment for the Arts\, Arts Westchester\, and numerous individual donors. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

SUMMARY:Artist In Residence: Katarina Hoeger Generated Images of Ossining Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Note location: Joseph G. Caputo Community Center (95 Broadway\, Ossining\, NY 10562) — Music Room  \nKatarina Hoeger will walk participants of this workshop through the process of generating an image that looks almost painted from code. She will discuss creative coding\, pointillism\, the basics of the process\, and some of the steps she takes to manipulate the output of the process with her own images. Participants should bring their own laptop and an image of Ossining that resonates with them. Basic typing skills are necessary for the successful completion of this workshop. Images are created\, any participants who chose to will be given the opportunity to display their work with the rest of the group’s images.  \nREGISTER\nResidency Plan:\nDuring her residency\, Katarina Hoeger will continue exploring the possibilities arising from images reconstructed using pixel data. During this exploration she plans to collect stories and pictures of Ossining and use a sequence of computer-generated images depicting her collection to show her changing understanding of and relation to Ossining over the course of her residency. The technique Katarina uses to reconstitute images is relatively new\, so the end result will provide insight into the value of choosing to use this technique.  \nBio:\nKatarina Hoeger is an intermedial artist whose works often heavily use code. She is currently using her practice to investigate the relations\, physical\, social\, environmental\, and more that are part of existing in a particular body in a specific space. Katarina Hoeger has recently had work exhibited in Lord Hall Gallery in Orono\, Maine. She was an active board member and organizer at Music Community Lab / Monthly Music Hackathon NYC until 2019. Katarina Hoeger anticipates graduating from University of Maine in August 2022 with an MFA in Intermedia. She lives in White Plains\, NY.   \n  \nResidencies and programs at Bethany Arts Community are made possible by the New York State Council on the Arts with the support of the Governor’s office and the New York State Legislature\, the National Endowment for the Arts\, Arts Westchester\, and numerous individual donors. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

SUMMARY:ArtsWestchester Public Program | Metropolis Sunrise | Public Sewing Days
DESCRIPTION:ArtsWestchester and Amanda Browder are thrilled to announce the unveiling of Metropolis Sunrise in the Fall of 2022. After two years of collectively enduring the COVID-19 pandemic\, we would like to invite everyone in the community to reconnect with us. Let’s come together to complete this monumental work of public art! Together\, we have so far sewn an incredible 6\,500 square-feet of fabric. That means we are two-thirds of the way towards completing our goal of sewing 10\,000 square-feet of fabric! \nLEARN MORE AND REGISTER\nOnce completed\, the fabric sculpture will be draped on the front facade of ArtsWestchester’s historic nine-story building in downtown White Plains\, where it will be on display for several weeks\, beginning in October 2022. The work will be officially unveiled as part of the highly anticipated Serious Fun Arts Fest. \nOver the next four months\, ArtsWestchester and our partners around Westchester County will be organizing Public Sewing Days\, during which groups of community volunteers will come together to organize\, pin and sew monochromatic stripes and shapes for the larger fabric installation. Whether you are new to this project or have attended Public Sewing Days in the past\, we invite you to join us and bring your family and friends! NO sewing skills are needed. There is a role for everyone!
