SUMMARY:Art + Water Workshop: Ripple Effects with Ananya Dance Theatre
DESCRIPTION:This two-part Art + Water Workshop series with Ananya Dance Theatre explores the ways water and love of public places intersect. Inspired by Ananya Dance Theatre’s summer of projects centered on the notion of public love\, we will carry stories of water into this practice together. \nThe first session begins with a movement meditation led by Ananya Chatterjea\, then moves into collage-making. Led by Jay Claire\, we will assemble a communal collaged River Tapestry as we consider the ripple effects of our own stories and actions of love for water. \nRegistration (below) is preferred but not required. No dance or musical experience is needed! All ages are welcome! Light snacks provided. All activities are designed to meet people where they are. Attending both workshops is encouraged but not required.
