When a Palestinian American girl comes out as queer to her mother, her response - "You exist too much" - intensifies a sense of shame.

Laboratory of Belonging
Aug

Laboratory of Belonging

Have you ever felt invisible?
Or wished you could disappear?

This is a paradox many of us navigate every day. Our need to be seen conflicts with our need for safety; our longing for connection bumps up against the fear of exposure. But what would it be like to be truly seen, heard, and celebrated exactly as you wish to be?

For over 25 years, multidisciplinary artist and In/Visibility Lab founder Gabrielle Senza has investigated the phenomenon of invisibility as a lived experience. Assisted by Lab Technician Dan Ruderman, Gabrielle facilitates a container for collective witnessing and deep transformation. Blending live performance, original music, and guided audience interaction, this gathering examines the complex forces that make us visible or invisible to one another, and how those forces define the boundaries of our belonging.

iimber's goodbye to the berkshires

iimber's goodbye to the berkshires

As a medical lab science student by day and artist by night, iimber wore her heart on her sleeve during the past year she resided in the Berkshires. She moved here knowing nothing of the area or its people, but intended to make a difference while attending clinicals at Berkshire Medical Center; first by performing at the Berkshire Singer Showcase in December, then by attending open mic events at Wander this spring. At the end of this month, her professional journey will take her back to her home state of Michigan to pursue her career as an MLS, but she intends to leave a piece of her heart in the Berkshires. Join her for one last musical goodbye performance at Wander with friends, coworkers, and everyone who made a difference during her short year here.
