Powerful moments mark reopening week arts events Jul 02, 2021
It s Covid reopening week in Washington state. For many of us, that may conjure visions of opening nights and music festivals, opening galas, you name it. We ve missed in-person events. We have to slow-walk our excitement for a little bit still, but live arts events are percolating.
Ishmael Butler from Shabazz Palaces and guitarist Thaddeus Turner (Thaddillac) will be live-streaming a concert from inside an art exhibition at the Henry Art Gallery. The musicians have been practicing in the space itself. Itâs an art installation called
The Engine Room by an LA-based artist named Gary Simmons. It s all about music and creation, including a garage, like the kind of garages that give birth to garage bands.
