Chiovarou said he was looking forward to “Artrageous” the most, “Artrageous, it is a family show that blends live music and art in a fun and interactive way.
The last event being shown in the next two months is the New Feathers Reading Series “BEYOND.” This story focuses on the relationship between a mother and her daughter with elements of how we perceive reality. The story is about an elderly woman named Marie who befriends a creature that arrives at her house. The creature slowly brings Marie lost memories of her and her daughter that will eventually reveal a bigger truth.
Chiovarou had the public on his mind when this slate of programs was being planned, “We were going for a diverse program where seniors, parents, and students can all find something to enjoy. The goal was to make it an environment where people can bring their friends and family and just forget about the outside world for a little bit.”
