Sound Moves Me

This is part of a free community arts workshop series at Artpark. 

There is also a session on 10/4 Both are from 10AM to 12PM.

 

This series presents an accessible introduction to experimental music through interactive participation. Discover how to use non-specialized sound sources (bodies, objects, simple audio technologies) and scores/instructions to enrich skills in listening, sound-making, improvisation, and coordination, while catalyzing creativity. Experimental music initiative Null Point (featuring artists Megan Kyle and Colin Tucker) joins Artpark Bridges for this special collaboration with program director Cynthia Pegado. The community is invited.

Led by experienced Artpark Bridges teaching artist and movement expert, Cynthia Cadwell Pegado, Cynthia weaves her passion for immersive performance into the creative process of site-specific work for people of all abilities. Ms. Pegado is a three-time New York State Council on the Arts (NYSCA) Community Arts awardee, for “Art Moves Me”, her interpretive dance program based on visual art, designed for the Burchfield Penney Art Center. She has choreographed performance works for students in Parkinson’s specific classes as well as public programs which include Global Water Dances (a worldwide network of choreographers advocating for water quality). At Artpark she has conceived and led a number of inclusive visual and performing arts activities as an Artpark Bridges program teaching artist. She is also a three-time NYSCA DEC grant recipient as an Individual Artist for “Sound Dance” / “Sound Moves Me” in partnership with Artpark.

 

“Sound Moves Me” is made possible with funds from the Statewide Community Regrant program, a regrant program of the New York State Council on the Arts with the support of the Office of the Governor and the New York State Legislature and administered by Arts Services Inc.
