Saturday

Please join our friends at Danspace for this terrific event in the Parish Hall!

“This year we honor the personal and artistic partnership of John Cage and Merce Cunningham and their profound influence on generations of art makers. In the video “Cage/Cunningham,” filmmaker Elliot Caplan traces the history of their collaboration through tour footage, archival interviews, and their associations with key figures in art, literature, dance, and music. Join us for this celebration of two iconoclasts who help revolutionized art, music, and dance.”

Admission is free.
