Donations accepted. Reservations required. Masks required. Space is limited. Following a week-long residency in CitySpace’s Blue Room in Old Town Hall, choreographer and visual artist, Ebbie Russell presents a community-curated movement workshop. The bulk of the choreography will come from you, participants! Ebbie invites the community to hold space and movement with each other through a body friendly dance and movement facilitation. In this space, stories and experiences of Black, Indigenous, and people of color and queer, trans, and gender expansive folks are centered.&nbsp; Ebbie is a Pay It Forward recipient as part of CitySpace’s pilot program that was launched this year. Their residency at Old Town Hall will exhibit in tandem a culmination of a two-month-long residency at Easthampton City Arts MAP Space. At the MAP space, located in Eastworks in Easthampton, Ebbie has been experimenting with linking sculptural, writing, video, movement, and collage elements that investigate one’s living with chronic pain and collective grief. Continuing this work at CitySpace, Ebbie will share explorations through somatic dance movement as a means of releasing trauma.
