Self-Soothing Artifacts Workshop:

Jan 25, 2025

How do we soothe ourselves in the age of efficiency? How do we find time for care in the age of speed? How do we transform healing into daily acts of resistance and revolution?

Join artist Maria Antonia Eguiarte in an object-making workshop that plants the seeds surrounding these questions through the creation of a self-soothing artifact. Using fiber, wire, and other materials, we will create a hand-held object informed by mindfulness and awareness of the needs of our bodies, souls, and beings.

This program is intended for adult audiences. Capacity is limited to 25 participants.

Fire Shut Up in My Bones

Jan 19, 2025

Terence Blanchard’s opera Fire Shut Up In My Bones made history in 2021 as the first work written by a Black composer to be staged at the Metropolitan Opera.
This “opera in jazz,” as Blanchard describes it, tells the true coming-of-age story of a young boy growing up in the face of great adversity and forging his personal identity.
Now, in this visually captivating concert performance, Terence Blanchard brings us a new suite of music from the piece.
