present a
Devised Theater Workshop
at the Tyler Art Gallery
FEBRUARY 13 - 21
What is the project?
Performing Art is a collaborative performance project led by Liz Dahmen that brings together an ensemble of local artists, students, and community members to create a live performance in response to a gallery exhibition. While in residence at the Tyler Art Gallery at SUNY/Oswego, a performance in response to the exhibit “She Is On Her Way” will be created. Performers will respond to the artwork through the kaleidoscope of their lived experiences, creating stories, songs, and dances to share with an audience.
We invite you to join the cast!
