All are welcome to stop by Thurber Park (3325 Thurber Ave) for weekly Hold & Release Open Studios Sessions with Artist-in-Residence, Jennifer Bastian.

Hold & Release is a two-year artist residency at Thurber Park Artist Studio, an indoor public park space currently occupied by artist Jennifer Bastian.
Jennie's residency is focused on the grief in our world right now. Jennifer shares, "for some it is delayed processing of loss due to the ongoing Covid pandemic and ramp-up back to 'normal,' for others it is due to income inequality or racial inequity in a segregated city, others are impacted by the reality of multiple concurrent genocides around the world. I believe we need space to slow down and process our grief. Art can help us access the emotions our daily lives do not leave room for."

During Open Studios Sessions you can stop in and create amongst other community members. Drawing, collage and fibers materials will be available for mixed media making. Jennie will be available to talk about ongoing projects. This residency is geared towards adults, young people are welcome with adult supervision.

Please note: One or more individuals in this small space are immunocompromised. For that reason, we are requesting all attendees kindly mask before entering. Masks are provided on-site if needed.

Central Cinema Cinesthesia presents Black Swan (2010).

Darren Aronofsky seamlessly blends high and low culture with this provocative psychological thriller set in the insular world of ballet. Natalie Portman is Nina, a repressed young ballerina bent on perfection who lives with her domineering mother in New York City. Nina auditions for the starring role in a production of Swan Lake, but the appearance of a new dancer, Lily (Mila Kunis), disrupts the fragile equilibrium of her life. As the rivalry between them develops into a more complex relationship, Nina gets in touch with her dark side and begins to lose her grip on reality. With its exhilarating visual style, luridly melodramatic plot, and revelatory lead performance, Black Swan creates an exquisite portrait of a tortured artist consumed by the ecstasy of self-destruction.

Hosted by Jason Fuhrman, Cinesthesia is an adventurous, eclectic series of classic and contemporary films that focuses on the complex relationship between literature and cinema. Cinesthesia strives to foster constructive dialogue, while breathing new life into controversial works, neglected masterpieces, and titles in the margins of film history.
