ART/BREAK is a community celebration and fundraiser for The Seattle Project. We have a fundraising goal of $10,000. Your ticket purchase supports us tremendously. All proceeds benefit The Seattle Project’s new original full-length performance work “Chapters” by Amanda Morgan to debut at the Northwest Film Forum on May 5 & 6 2023. 

 

Chapters will explore the lives of four black femmes;  Akoiya Harris, Ashton Edwards, Amanda Morgan, and Nia-Amina Minor - highlighting ancestry and upbringing along with the intersections of Blackness and femininity. This new work will feature live dance, dance film, home video, poetry, music, and photographic portraits by Kenya Shakoor. A short documentary by Barry Johnson will accompany the piece showcasing the creative process from start to finish.
