Fixing What We Face

In this Jan. 18 edition of "Rocky Watch,"

Dartmouth's Rockefeller Center for Public Policy and Social Sciences presents nationally recognized civil rights lawyer, racial justice advocate, New York City mayoral candidate and Dartmouth '86 Maya Wiley, identifying the threat to democracy posed by white racial anxiety in reaction to demographic changes and the urgency of voter protections for the "unarmed truth" to prevail.

From JAG Fest 4.0 – (Re)Surface: A Poetics of Fish/Flesh

February 7, 2020 at the Briggs Opera House

CATV's YouTube channel archives local content telling our collective story and reflecting who we are.

Take a look back at one of CATV's popular videos.

JAG Fest 4.0 (Re)Surface: A Poetics of Fish/Flesh

About JAGfest: Every year for the past five years, JAG has invited artists to spend a week in White River Junction, VT to further the development of a new play or solo performance. Over the course of the one-week residency, three-five projects receive an intensive workshop, constructive feedback, a staged reading for the public at Briggs Opera House and the attention of a dramaturg, actors and JAG staff. JAGfest 6.0 will be held April 29-May 1, 2022 at the Briggs Opera House. The deadline for submissions is March 4.

Our guests will remain anonymous. And we invite you, listeners, to simply listen."

To share your story or questions with Michelle, you are invited to email: [email protected]

Produced at the CATV audio booth at the Briggs Opera House and edited by David Eric for CATV.

Local Filmmaking & CATV in the news

"Vermont and New Hampshire haven’t lacked for writers, poets and visual artists. But aside from a handful of success stories, filmmakers are fewer and farther between....While there’s a community of filmmakers, there isn’t a big infrastructure. But it’s growing."

"Art Notes: Short film shoot will be a homecoming for Thetford native"
