We moved First Thursdays to the SECOND Thursday this month! Free admission, all ages welcome!
Join us for "When My Hair Tells Its Story", an exclusive multidisciplinary performance created by curator Jasmin Agosto, choreographer Lauren Horn, hair designer Joshua Pendergrass, and composer ym. Original music, sound, movement, and hair design are woven together to create intimate stories about hair loss, experimentation, and reclamation deeply tied to the intersection of racial, cultural, and gender-based identities. Featuring live music by Taylor McCoy and Mixed Company. Stop by the "Styling Identities: Hair’s Tangled Histories" exhibition and reflect on your own hair story.
* Performances at 5:30 & 7pm
This program series is made possible with generous support provided by Art Bridges Foundation’s Access for All program.
