Dance Performance To Take Place In MCLA Gallery 51 - April 09, 2008
NORTH ADAMS – The Moving Community and Dancers Unite will present an evening of dance, music, art, and discussion on Wednesday, April 9, at 7:30 p.m., as part of the “Bloom” exhibit at MCLA Gallery 51 in downtown North Adams.
The event is free and open to the public.
Local dancers will present several works, improvisations and works-in-progress, including “Phoenix,” with music by the Japanese composer Ryo Noda, choreography by Emily Schreiner and Isabelle Holmes, and performed by Steven Bodner, Emily Schreiner and Isabelle Holmes, “The Wall,” written and performed by Jake Holmes, along with numerous community dancers, and a work-in-progress by Kat Gurley, performed by Gurley, Kareem Khubchandani and Isabelle Holmes.
These performances, part of The Moving Community: Building Bridges through Dance, are supported in part by a grant from the Cultural Council of Northern Berkshire, a local agency which receives funding from the Massachusetts Cultural Council, a state agency.
The evening is offered in conjunction with MCLA Gallery 51’s exhibit “Bloom,” curated by students in the museum studies course. “Bloom” explores the concepts of renewal and revitalization, including cycles of growth and decay, and the rise and fall of places, things or ideas.
