Under Lebanese Skies

Join us for an evening of soulful and emotional contemplation. Inspired by the sounds of Lebanon, 3 different artists will take the stage and improvise soundscapes that will transport us back home. 

Far from home, we feel the reverberations of the explosions. We loop the videos of destruction and chaos. We don't, however, sit in the silence of the aftermath. When the rubble is moved and the bodies counted, people sit and wait for the war to end in mind-blowing stillness and nauseating uncertainty. 

This evening is inspired by wanting to remember that between the rounds of bombing there is life that deserves to be preserved. It is a space to form a bridge, dig a tunnel, created by recordings taken by generous people back home and music made by Lebanese musicians out here. 

Throughout the evening, artworks will also be available for purchase.
