Good Morning Gloucester

Art in Lanesville Student Project

Hi Joey,
Winslow Lewis and Laura Johnson have created a really nice film for James Cook’s AP English Language class at Gloucester High School called ‘At the End of the Road: Lanesville’s Artistic Legacy’. They did a really nice job and I thought it should be shared with the community. Here’s a link to the video which is hosted on Vimeo.

Thanks, Joey, for what you do,

Windhover announces its Summer Dance Performances
Featuring Forty Steps Dance and Sarah Slifer Swift
at Windhover Performing Arts Center, 257 rear Granite St., Rockport, MA
Friday, July 18–Sunday,July 20, 2014 at 8:00 P.M.

Tickets: Adults, $20; Students and seniors, $18 ; children under 10 free
Tickets may be purchased at Toad Hall Bookstore, Rockport; The Bookstore, Gloucester; or by sending a check to Windhover, P.O. Box 2249, Rockport, MA 01966 

Forty Steps Dance will be performing two works, both choreographed by artistic director Sallee Slagle. “Creatures” was created in 2014 and is based on the movements of the variety of creatures around us and our affinity to the natural world.  “Accord” is a crowd-pleasing work created in 1992 and was recently performed in Nahant for the company’s 20th anniversary.
 
Sarah Slifer Swift will present two recent works. “Insenser” (2014 premiere), named after an NSA surveillance system, takes on the human response to watching, being watched and becoming data.  “Invisible Stories” (2013) is a collaboration between Swift and Vermont-based writer and choreographer, Kate Morgan, based on the idea that “the book,” open or closed, occupies the landscapes in which we live. 
 
As part of the “Invisible Stories” performance, an installation in one of the Windhover buildings will be on display at the start of each evening.
