Dance & Create – Circumstantial Saint Album Release Party

This August, Dance/Create honors local spoken word artist Circumstantial Saint in the debut of his newest album, Remember My Name. Join us as his work takes us on a journey through the human experience.

Dance/Create is a mixed media movement experience offered by local artist, Shauna Yorty. Dance/Create events invite us to dive deep into our own experience as we listen to an album from beginning to end. We freely move throughout the space, working with mixed media art supplies and our bodies to join the music, and honor what moves us. We trust our bodies, the music, and the process to be our guides.

Please arrive promptly at 7PM for settling in and orienting to the space. We will begin with introductions and gathering our supplies, followed by a body/space check-in led by Shauna.

Once the album starts, we will drop into our own experience of moving and making. Following the album, we will have an opportunity for tying up loose ends on our art piece as well as time for sharing/discussion.

Date: Friday, August 30, 2024

Time: 7PM – 9PM

Fee: $25 (Pay what you can option available. Please email Hello@HempfieldApothetique.com with your request)

What to bring/wear: Please wear whatever clothes you feel most at home in and keep in mind ease of movement as well as potential for messy art fun. All supplies will be provided. All are welcome. Feel free to bring water to hydrate and come just as you are.
