Opening Reception | 2 Exhibitions: Tropical Frequencies / Hope is a discipline


Hope is a discipline inhabits the words of Mariame Kaba, who proposes that hope is neither just a feeling nor horizon but something we do together, using the resources we already have. The exhibition features an ensemble of artists foregrounding memory and political inheritance, who work with collectively held archives—physical and intangible—from documentary record to oral history, ancestral memory to intergenerational learning. Transmitted through textile, installation, video, theater props, artist books and ephemera, Hope is a discipline relays the question: how do we find, remember, and share in the struggles of ancestors? Tropical Frequencies is an exhibition featuring painting, sculpture and installations by artists from the Caribbean who channel and engage with alternate realms in their practices. These spiritual and intangible realms are heavily influenced by diasporic Caribbean culture, the tropics, ancestral  stories, and the artists’ African and/or Indigenous roots. The repurposed organic and manmade materials used throughout the exhibition such as wood, sand, seashells, and recycled clothing,  act as a medium to channel the artist's ancestral homes and the nuanced histories of the Caribbean.

Shakespeare's comedic tale of mistaken identities, love, and festive revelry. The story begins with Viola, who is shipwrecked and believes her twin brother, Sebastian, has drowned. Disguised as a man named Cesario, she enters the service of Duke Orsino, who is in love with Lady Olivia. However, Olivia falls for Cesario, unaware of Viola's true identity. Meanwhile, Viola harbors her own feelings for Orsino. The subplot involves Olivia's drunken uncle, Sir Toby, who schemes with others to humiliate the pompous steward, Malvolio. The confusion culminates in comic misunderstandings, leading to Sebastian's unexpected arrival. The play concludes with multiple marriages, the revelation of true identities, and a celebration of love and harmony. Presented by the Drilling Company.

She has recorded, performed, and/or toured with such icons as David Byrne, Elvis Costello, Maryanne Faithfull, Lou Reed, Todd Rundgren, Rufus Wainwright and Ronnie Spector.

Performance | Fabric Softener: Performance Art Inspired by Toni Morrison


Asia Stewart's Fabric Softener is a theatrical response to Toni Morrison's Song of Solomon, offering an imagined ritual with the power to revive young Black women and insist on their survival. Stewart draws on three characters from the many who populate Morrison's 1977 novel: Pilate, her daughter Reba, and granddaughter Hagar. In the original text, Hagar dies of a broken heart after deeming herself unworthy of love, beauty, and acceptance. In her performance, punctuated by musical outbursts of spirituals and passages from the novel, Stewart presents three new characters who are not recreations of these women but are instead archetypes: The Laundress, The Celebrant, and The Witness. The performance begins as The Celebrant and The Witness prepare The Laundress for an intervention: a baptism, a becoming, and a funeral for what used to be and can no longer exist.

Concert | Music from Caribbean Carnival - Outdoors


Every year at Carnival, hundreds of artists from across the Caribbean country of Trinidad and Tobago submit songs and compete to be crowned either the International Soca Monarch or the winner of the Carnival Road March. Their tracks glorify the sweet sound of soca, a regional fusion of funk, calypso, electronic dance, reggae, zouk, R&B, dance pop and whatever tunes are moving the crowd on the date of the festival. This event celebrates the enduring spirit and joy of soca music with an unforgettable show from Trini Carnival legend and crossover star Patrice Roberts. One of the genre's most prominent female voices, Roberts has been entertaining island audiences for nearly two decades as a luminary in Carnival competitions, including a 2006 Road March victory with Machel Montano. Her hit "Mind My Business" is the most streamed soca song in the world; don't miss it and other unstoppable singles live!
