SUMMARY:Move Under the Stars - La La Land
DESCRIPTION:Astoria Park Alliance is partnering with Benedict Realty Group (BRG) to present the Academy Award winning La La Land\, as the first Spring movie screening in Astoria Park. \nAPA Movie Night blankets will be distributed to the first 50 attendees along with free popcorn for all moviegoers thanks to APA’s partnership with BRG. \n“APA Presents Movies Under the Stars” was born out of a desire to schedule a screening for the late spring\, when the weather is comfortable and the event calendar is less busy. A weekend evening was specifically targeted along with a title that would be appealing to an adult audience. \nFor years\, the community volunteers behind Astoria Park Alliance have admired and helped promote the July and August Monday night movie series that Central Astoria has sponsored and hosted in Astoria Park. The Alliance hopes to replicate the old-time drive-in-without-the-drive neighborhood feel that brings a magical sensation to the park. \nAs the APA organization has grown both in size and capacity\, Astoria Park Alliance is continuing to offer free public programming to the community. The 2017 season was kicked off with APA’s first successful Earth Day event that included over 20 local business partners. Earth Day festivities featured the grand opening of the refurbished Bocce Ball Court that was also made possible thanks to Benedict Realty Group. \nLa La Land will be screened on the great lawn of Astoria Park overlooking the sunset across the East River and is scheduled to begin at sundown\, which is generally around 8:15 pm. Moviegoers are encouraged to bring their own blankets and picnics for the inaugural movie night\, which hopes to be an annual tradition for the Astoria Park Alliance. \nAttendees are encourage to RSVP on Facebook. \n

SUMMARY:Take Root presents ZEST Collective and Undertow Dance
DESCRIPTION:Take Root presents ZEST Collective and Undertow Dance \nZEST Collective: On The Map is a performance art project and testimony that immigrants define the essence of the American – and global – experience. In this new work\, people of all races and walks of life will come together to learn about uncommon pasts and shared present. Punctuated by poetry and iconic speeches about abandoning fear\, ZEST Collective’s new ballet emphasizes strength derived from struggle. On The Map pays homage to those who fight sensitively to seek and protect personal liberty. Join us as we reveal the tales of separated families\, veterans\, undocumented workers\, and history of ‘travelers’ to this country\, by free will or force and the importance of religious and political freedom. \nUndertow Dance: Excerpt from Pitch Dark no. 1 (a breakdown) dives into a world of chance encounters and simmering frustration. Collaborative and investigative\, this work for four dancers is the impossibility of ever fully breaking emotional patterns\, as the past reasserts itself. \nJune 9 &10\, 2017 at 8pm\nAdmission: $15\nGreen Space Studio\n37-24 24th Street\, #301\nLong Island City\, NY 11101\n718-956-3037 \nTickets are available at the door or online at http://www.greenspacestudio.org/TakeRoot.html \nTake Root is a monthly curated series that supports dance makers by providing an opportunity to show a half evening work paired with another artist. \nPhoto Credits: Armando Colls and Grace Courvoisier \n
