  • Young and old singers with large songbooks

    Shape Note Singing

    Described as spiritual, joyful, powerful, and raucous, Shape Note (or Sacred Harp) singing is a traditional American style of four-part, a capella, community singing popular in the United States before the Civil War. This style still thrives across the US and in the UK, with strongholds in the American South and New England. It is called Shape Note because the notes of the scale are indicated by distinctive shapes and names.

    Movement Matters with Michael Bodel

    Mahaney Arts Center, Dance Theatre

    Folding, flatness, corrugation. In this interdisciplinary movement workshop, we explore cardboard as a choreographic inspiration and performance partner. Dance artist Michael Bodel’s work integrates objects and materials as central choreographic elements and inspiration. This “devising lab” is part of a series of workshops where participants explore Bodel’s approach to creating dance with objects and also contribute ideas and choreography to this new dance project.
