The Art of Me participants

The Art of Me participants

 

Come one, come all! You’re invited to The Art of Me: A Theatrical Experience, the culmination of our summer residency at Valley Friendship Club. This informal performance will feature all program participants through original poetry, songs, dance, and even improvisation! Unlike our standard residencies in classrooms, this collaboration with Valley Friendship Club marks the first time we are offering this kind of public performance opportunity for participants, an exciting expansion of our work. Our residency has been made possible by the voters of Minnesota through grants the Metropolitan Regional Arts Council and the Minnesota State Arts Board, thanks to a legislative appropriation from the arts and cultural heritage fund.

You can enjoy an excellent preview of the project (including video and photos) in The Pioneer Press (we’re honored to have been featured on the front page, above the fold) and Stillwater Gazette! We’ve also posted some additional photos on Facebook.

The Art of Me will be presented tomorrow evening, Thursday, August 1, 6:30pm, at Stillwater Jr. High School (532 West Marsh Street, Stillwater, MN). FREE OF CHARGE. Cake will be served after the show. No reservations necessary. Hope to see you there!
