‼️‼️SCHEDULE ANNOUNCEMENT‼️
The Summer Happenings Festival is back for a 4th year and this time it’s all happening on one big, hot, wet day in Red Hook!
☀️🌊🔥
Join us SUNDAY JULY 27 2:00-8:30pm for a day of FREE performances from @wakingstephanie @sameassister @evanxray @grons__ @janessaclark @fro_babes @uwillconsumeus @ahameline @___soft_rush @asiastewart

👏👏👏
This year’s theme arose naturally out of 2025: COMPOSURE IN THE FACE OF CHAOS. We curated a group whose work already wrestles with the idea of how artists function amidst constant rupture — rupture in our city, country and world; in our economy and ecology; in our personal lives and broader communities … in everything. How do we compose our work and ourselves in this environment? How do we keep making silly little art projects and how do we insist on their importance? Is the confusion of art making reparative in this moment of rupture? Or are we just kidding ourselves?

👯‍♂️🌊☀️
This year we are living through pure chaos so the theme is COMPOSURE. We asked this incredible group of multidisciplinary artists - “how as artists do you function amidst constant rupture — rupture in our city, country, and world; in our economy and ecology; in our personal lives and broader communities … in everything. How do we compose our work and ourselves in this environment? How do we keep making silly little art projects and how do we insist on their importance? Is the confusion of art making reparative in this moment of rupture? Or are we just kidding ourselves?
☀️🐚🌻❤️‍🩹
Come out to Red Hook July 27 to see what this amazing group of artists has to say. More details and registration page coming soon!

2024: a year my Dahliamania™️ was made manifest, and one of so much art-making and *many* celebrations, including our own 🥰🥳🥰 @lewisalbertremele + LEKA

Humbled to be carrying so much love from such beautiful, varied community into what will be a year that will both require and prioritize both Love + Community! ⚡️ FORZA TUTTI ⚡️

Managed to squeeze in a short vocal session at #EastSideSound @eastsidesoundstudio before heading to airport for Europe.

This is my third project with composer and visual/audio artist #MichelleJaffe @michellejaffeart and this time she enlisted the help of super versatile and talented #JamesDanner @thedannerparty for her new piece.

Fun session packed with the most diversity in style of any single vocal session probably ever! taken in New York, New York by @thedannerparty
