ARTS at CCBC

March 2023

Hello Anne,


Imagine being able to see the world through someone else’s eyes. To walk the streets of your city or town, and hear the buzz of the people and the rhythms of life as they do. To see the colors of the trees and the feathers of the birds as another’s eyes do. This month, we offer you several chances not only to step into someone else’s mind – but to step into the mind of an artist. Learn how musicians build their careers, or hear how they learn to listen and take cues from each other as they improvise together. Walk the streets of Grover’s Corners and see it through the eyes of its residents, and a friendly Stage Manager who will be your guide. Step into our Gallery at CCBC Essex and bear witness to the rising talents of our student artists exhibiting in Becoming 2023. Or stroll alongside artist Joseph Cornell as he walks the New York City streets he loved, and submerge yourself in the marvel and the minutiae he made into an art form all his own.

 

If you’re missing a little magic in your world this March, come to CCBC. We’ll gladly share.


MUSIC FORUMS | All concerts take place at 12:20 p.m. on Fridays in the CCBC Essex Arts and Humanities Hall, Recital Hall, unless otherwise noted.

DUNDALK COMMUNITY THEATRE

Our Town

by Thornton Wilder


Described by Edward Albee as "the greatest American play ever written," Our Town presents the small town of Grover’s Corners in three acts: "Daily Life," "Love and Marriage" and "Death and Eternity." Narrated by a stage manager and performed with minimal props and sets, the play depicts the simple daily lives of the Webb and Gibbs families as their children fall in love, marry, and eventually – in one of the most famous scenes in American theatre – die.
