Join us in an informal performance series for local artists to share work in any stage of their process. Artists are given studio space and complete full agency over how and what they share.


Workshop
Deep Listening Moving, Sounding, Grounding in the Heart
(dates coming soon)
Art Room Studio
2329 S. 3rd Street, 2nd fl
Leah Stein facilitates a heart-centered Deep Listening voice movement workshop. With gentle prompts, we invite our bodies to ground, sound and connect through somatic awareness practices and deep listening scores. We will focus on the heart channel, the heart / hand / body connection and explore the balance of openness and protection in these challenging times. All welcome!



Highlight + congrats!

MISS GENDER at STUDIO WORKS ☎️💄
@missgenderdotcom in collaboration with Colby Calhoun
Miss Gender (yes/and/also) is a wish and a wish granted, a local star, a state of being. She invites you to witness her in witness of herself, in practice/in process, and hopes that through that we all learn how to see/do/be more of that which is close to us - always already a part of us - but may often feel far away. Both rooted in her before and wayyy too forward thinking, she is painstakingly and imminently (inevitably) “in the moment”; Miss Gender is a dream come true.

She tosses her head back, laughing with her eyes closed, with long blonde box braids brushing the floor. She is joy.
