Join us Saturday April 25th to participate in the masked performance workshop with Mariangela Lopez and Caroline McAuliffe!
From Mariangela and Caroline:::
This workshop will invite you to explore movement and art-making to delve into your inner world through somatic movement exploration and creation of a wearable headpiece. We hope this multi-disciplinary approach of moving and making can lead to discovering how the ancient practice of masquerade can physicalize your subconscious. Individual experiences will birth a landscape of masked movers.

Ages Teen and adult!
Space is limited. RSVP required.
