The Makers Series: The Art of Performance

Join us on Friday, March 13, 2015 from 7–9 PM for The Makers Series // The Art of Performance at Meade Hall. This Makers Series will feature artist talks from three Charlottesville makers: Katie Schetlick (dance artist, choreographer, researcher, and current Lecturer in Dance at the University of Virginia), Matt Joslyn (actor, director, and Executive Director of Live Arts), and Joel Jones (playwright, actor, story-teller, improvisor, and founder of Big Blue Door).

A photo background image of a female figure face down in sand. Surrounding the figure, thick white text reads: "The maker series: the art of performance: Matt Joslyn, Director of Live Arts Theater" and other event details.

This quarterly event is hosted by Christ Episcopal Church, co-sponsored by The Garage and New City Arts InitiativeThree artists present their work and then briefly speak about their creative process. Towards the end of the night, the floor opens up for Q&A.

Our aim is to cultivate an artist salon that is both informal and thoughtful. We want to provide an opportunity for artists to present their work in front of a captive audience and to also invite them to share the less glamorous parts of their experience – the failures alongside the successes, the frustrations with the inspiration; everything that goes into the finished product.

Light refreshments will be served (but eat dinner before you come). Meade Hall is located in Christ Episcopal Church. Use the entrance across from McGuffey Park on 2nd and Jefferson St. NW. Questions? Email Sam Bush.
