NOoSPHERE Arts Presents WE ARE NATURE 4 | Part of Open House NY

Broadway Stages is proud to support NOoSPHERE Arts’ performance series WE ARE NATURE. We invite you to enjoy visual arts, dance, and music as the final installment of this year’s WE ARE NATURE series is presented!

The final installment of NOoSPHERE Arts summer performance series WE ARE NATURE will be presented on Saturday, October 21.  As always, the event will be hosted at 520 Kingsland Avenue, a Broadway Stages facility that includes Kingsland Wildflowers Green Roof and Community Engagement Center. And since the third installment was preempted by poor weather, the events scheduled for that evening will be presented as well, offering a banquet of artistic expression.

Lasting from 1-4 p.m., the afternoon will be part of Open House New York (OHNY). OHNY is an annual festival that opens hundreds of noteworthy or significant places across the five boroughs to foster discovery and delight for New Yorkers and visitors alike. It promotes unparalleled access to the city — the places, people, projects, systems, and ideas that define New York and its future. Guided tours of the galleries at Last Frontier NYC and the spectacular flora at Kingsland Wildflowers will be available. While touring Kingsland Wildflowers’ Upper Meadow, you will also be able to experience the Site-Specific Installation: Westerlies by the 2023 season’s KWBS Residency Award winners, Ezra Campelli and Jeremy Clemente.

Since the day will also serve as the rain date for WAN 3, Earth Ethics, the events originally slated for the evening will be on display too. Brazilian Dancer and Model Alexandre Barranco will perform Becoming, a solo act inspired by the metamorphosis of a caterpillar into a butterfly. Also presented will be the 6 Rs of Sustainable Fashion (RE-pair, RE-use, RE-design, RE-cycling, RE-make, and RE-duce) conceived by Artist and Designer Isabelle Mesquita.

One-of-a-kind Artist Fantasy Grandma will perform their piece Bottlecap, and Brooklyn-based Poet and Recording Artist Honeychild Coleman will perform spoken word. The nurturing power of Sound Healing will be provided at Inner Sanctuary Activation with Boshko Boskovic. And the air will be filled with sounds of joy by Brazilian Musician Denise Reiss.

Benki Piyako, President of the Yorenka Tasorentsi Institute and Spiritual and political leader of the Ashaninka People, as well as Best-Selling Author and Scientist Fritjof Capra, will share their wise words in gatherings throughout the afternoon.

While you enjoy all that is being presented, be sure to enjoy vegan bites by Mariana Tamiozzy and herbal elixirs by Crystal Drip Elixirs.

There is too much to be missed, so add this to your calendars.
