Festival Statement of some kind -

Workshops on July 31
New Fables For A New World
Northampton Center for the Arts (1- 4pm- temporary time)
Fables teach lessons, offer wisdom, encourage compassion and suggest needed change. Through guided experimentation with sound, words, and found objects, this workshop turns concerns for the environment into performative activism. Engaging in a wide range of arts experiments and drawing on both scientific knowledge and personal stories we will build new and original fables to address climate-related emergencies. This workshop intensive is designed for artists and non-artists.
Dr. Terry Jenoure musician, writer, visual artist and educator was born and raised in the Bronx into a Puerto Rican and Jamaican family. From early formal music training as a violinist, vocalist, composer and protégé of the Free Jazz Movement, to her self-taught doll sculptures featured at the Smithsonian Institute, to academic publications, a recently completed novel and one-woman theater performances, arts have fueled her passion throughout her lifetime. Terry was on the graduate faculty at Lesley University for 18 years, and an independent researcher focusing on the creative development of teachers, community leaders and social workers in South Africa, Mexico, Israel, and Colombia. She was also the Director of Augusta Savage Gallery at the University of Massachusetts Amherst for three decades.
