January 2024 Newsletter

Happy New Year!

This past year was an exciting one for the WCA MA. This was our first full year as the official Massachusetts Chapter. Over the year we gained several new members from all over the state, started this newsletter, and built our new website (www.wcamass.org). We also had several wonderful exhibitions and other opportunities to get together as a group. I am so thankful for each of our amazing members and I am looking forward to another exciting year!

Darcy Lally - Stargaze Studios

WCA MA member Darcy Lally is currently looking for anyone who is interested in being an Executive Producer for her film "I Am Myself Alone." The film follows two women competing for the lead role in a Shakespearean play. Their rivalry escalates and everything comes to a head during an intense stage fight.

This is her honors thesis project and is also one of the first films produced by her indie film company Stargaze Studios. All funds raised at this point will go to festival fees. The more funds, the more festivals the film will be a part of!

The buy in for an Executive Producer credit is $250, however, any contribution no matter how small would be very helpful.

Donations can be made here: https://www.stargaze-studios.com/donate
