We are thrilled to introduce the first Junction Dance Festival, a three-day dance fest to expose and share with the community the wonderful talent of local amateur and professional dance artists. 40+ dancers from Vermont, New Hampshire and beyond will be gathering in downtown White River Junction for a whole week-end and will introduce you to their specific dance style and mode of choreographic expression.
Mountain Movement Intensive is a week-long intensive led by Jeremy Cline at The Sable Project in Stockbridge, VT. Designed for dancers, circus artists, physical actors, creative athletes, directors, and choreographers, time will be split between movement technique class and the creation of a new work, which will be presented on the last day of the intensive to the Sable/Stockbridge community.
CONTEMPLATIVE CREATION
Unpack your perceptual assumptions, explore ambiguity and feel out that third thing that exists between the self and the other. Faye Driscoll, a Doris Duke Award-winning performance maker and Viola Stoermer, Assistant Professor in Dartmouth's Department of Psychological and Brain Sciences co-facilitate this virtual, experiential workshop of sensory experiments.
This experience is open to all and traverses ideas from dance, embodiment studies and cognitive science. We recommend participating with a partner if it is possible to do safely.
Calling all VT transplants in Washington, DC! Join us for an afternoon of dance and music performances in Montrose Park, Georgetown (by the tennis courts!) featuring dancers Lucia Gagliardone, Raeanna Grey, and Chloe Conway, and musician Norell Sherman. Created and curated by Lucia Gagliardone with the intention of bringing the community together to share in live performance, "The Hollow" showcases works of music and dance that contend with solitude, connection, bewilderment, grief, and healing.
Playful, imaginative and inspirational, POP UP is inspired by the personal stories, memories and anecdotes of a community. The one-of-a-kind performances are the outcome of Strike Anywhere Performance Ensemble's summer residency with the Hopkins Center this year during which they talked to scores of Upper Valley residents and students in preparation. During their stay, the ensemble also led workshops on Soundpainting—a universal sign language developed by composer Walter Thompson for live composition with improvisers.
Are you an actor, dancer, singer or musician? Strike Anywhere invites you to be a performer in POP UP: An Artistic Adventure's "ephemeral choir." You'll learn Soundpainting, a form of live composition and improvisation, and perform in the POP UP finale.
...where two people show up,
give over, and have faith.
