Artist Commune: Ekphrasis brings together the lyrical voices of poets Ajanaé Dawkins and Tyiesha Radford Shorts with the visual imagination of artist Arris’ Cohen for an evening of boundary-dissolving creation. Experience art that speaks and poetry that paints as these artists transform one another’s work through the ancient practice of ekphrasis.

noun: ekphrasis
1. the use of detailed description of a work of visual art as a literary device.

On Friday, April 25 from 6–8 PM, join us at Urban Arts Space for a night where visual art inspires poetic response, poetry births new imagery, and the dialogue between art forms reveals colors we’ve never seen, sounds we’ve never heard, and feelings yet to be felt.

It’s your world, but I make my way in it.

Regarded as one of the greatest operas ever written, The Marriage of Figaro is a screwball comedy complete with disguises, surprises, and compromises, and comes to life with an impressive cast of singers.

The barber of Seville is getting hitched today! The passions and perils of love and marriage collide in one uproarious day as Figaro struggles to get his bride, Susanna, to the altar unscathed. Identities are concealed, manners upended, plots foiled … Soon, everyone’s involved in the farcical antics, from a vengeful doctor and his matronly housekeeper to a bumbling teenage page!

Mozart’s breathlessly paced comic masterpiece–one of the world’s all-time favorites based on French playwright Beaumarchais’s “sequel” to The Barber of Seville–comes to vibrant life through enchanting music marked by glorious arias, tender duets, and of course the celebrated effervescent overture. Clever disguises and absurd mix-ups keep the laughs and surprises coming in this charming exploration of the perils of temptation, the grace of forgiveness, and the triumph of love.

On its Pathway of Justice, the park has dozens of guide stones engraved with inspiring quotes from social justice champions. The park also displays the unique sculpture, “Our Single Garment of Destiny,” inspired by the metaphor used by the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., in his Letter from Birmingham Jail.
