SUMMARY:Common Space - There is No There: Mixed Fibers Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Through the Common Space initiative\, Fleisher is partnering with One Book\, One Philadelphia\, the signature program of the Free Library that promotes literacy\, library usage\, and civic dialogue by encouraging the entire greater Philadelphia area to come together through reading and discussing a single book. From January 22 to March 18\, nearly 100 events and programs will center on Tommy Orange’s award-winning novel\, There There. \nThrough the art of knitting you will explore the themes of gentrification and displacement making a collective work of art. Using knitting looms and knit picks/hooks you will each make a small part of a larger piece inspired by the flower of the Franklin Tree (Franklinia Alatamaha): The Franklin Tree was a flowering tree native only to the Altahama River valley in Georgia\, extinct in the wild since the early 19th century. All the Franklin Trees known to exist today are descended from seed collected by William Bartram and propagated at Bartram’s Garden in Philadelphia. If time permits\, the participants will incorporate the smaller pieces made during the workshop into a large yarn installation. A future date for installing the work in an outdoor setting will also be decided. This workshop hopes to promote healing through art and to share the story of preservation leading to a beautiful tomorrow. We have limited knitting looms and hooks so please bring your own if you have them. If you have any yarn donations in white\, yellow\, or green\, we would gladly accept them. \nFree registration is required. Event capacity is limited to 30\, due to the amount of available looms. If you can bring your own\, please contact gsilva@fleisher.org to be added to the waitlist. \nAbout the artist:\nJessica Curtaz is a Philadelphia-based street artist and arts advocate. She transforms public space through installing crocheted weeds\, insects\, real and imaginary creatures\, and other\, over-sized flora and fauna onto the urban landscape\, bringing a feminized craft out of the home and onto the streets. \nFleisher’s new Common Space initiative gives local organizations and artist collectives ‘the keys’ to Fleisher’s historic Sanctuary to present culturally diverse\, community-driven projects. Designed to support Philadelphia-area performance artists by providing access to a unique venue and to help cultivate new audiences for their work\, Common Space embodies our founder’s vision of the Sanctuary as a public space devoted to the appreciation and pursuit of art. All programs in this series are free and open to the public.

SUMMARY:DEAR ARLEEN: Celebrating ARTZ @ Fleisher
DESCRIPTION:Come celebrate with us and learn more about a new partnership between ARTZ Philadelphia and Fleisher\, now entering its first full year of programs. Learn about how Fleisher and ARTZ are collaborating to enhance the quality of life of people living with dementia and those they love\, celebrate Arleen Weinstein and enjoy a performance by The Philadelphia Women’s Slavic Ensemble.  \nWhy are we dedicating this event to Arleen? \nIn December 2014\, Fred and Arleen Weinstein attended their first ARTZ @ The Museum program. They were a wonderful couple – gregarious\, full of good humor and insights. Arleen had been diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease four years earlier\, but her lifelong love of art was evident from the outset. Fred and Arleen became ARTZ @ The Museum regulars and hardly missed a session. When Arleen moved into a care community\, ARTZ stay connected with her and Fred\, providing programming to the memory care floor where she had taken up residence. And so Arleen became the first ARTZ participant to transition from living at home to living in a long term care setting. She became the first participant to demonstrate that no matter how long her illness continued or where she lived\, Arleen remained clearly and without a doubt … Arleen.  \nArleen’s combined role of art-lover\, insightful viewer\, and generous facilitator for others is honored in a new partnership program that we piloted last year at Fleisher. ARTZ @ Fleisher\, funded by the Arleen Weinstein Fund for Creative Aging\, is a celebration of all that Arleen brought to our community\, generously sponsored by her loving husband\, fellow art-lover\, and fellow ARTZ Philadelphia program participant.

SUMMARY:Common Space Initiative: "Flower Drum Song" Film Screening
DESCRIPTION:Join Philadelphia Asian Performing Artists and the Philadelphia Asian American Film Festival for a free community screening of the classic 1961 movie-musical “Flower Drum Song.” As part of the PAPA Member Monday Series\, this event centers the collaborative community building of Asian American and Pacific Islander Performing artists\, but all who are interested in learning about and supporting this movement are welcome to attend. \nCommon Space Initiative is Fleisher’s newest neighborhood-based program designed to help community members find and keep a sense of place in a culturally diverse and rapidly changing South Philadelphia. In a time of increasing gentrification and tensions over the use of South Philadelphia’s limited public space\, Fleisher will create a place where inclusive\, community-driven projects are made and shared. All programs in this series will be developed by the community organizations or artist collectives that host them\, and are free and open to the public. \nBefore “Crazy Rich Asians” and before “Joy Luck Club\,” “Flower Drum Song” was truly the first Hollywood studio film to star an all Asian cast. This 1961 adaptation of the 1958 Rodgers and Hammerstein Broadway musical about missed connections and intergenerational conflict helped boost the careers of an entire generation of Asian American actors into mainstream stardom. Academy Award winning actress Miyoshi Umeki stars as Chinese immigrant Mei Li\, a young woman who arrives in San Francisco’s Chinatown with the intention of marrying a rakish nightclub owner Sammy Fong (Jack Soo). Things soon become complicated when Sammy wants to marry showgirl Linda Low (Nancy Kwan). In an effort to get out of his arranged marriage\, Sammy tries to pawn her off to wealthy Master Wang (Benson Fong) as a fiancée for his son\, Wang Ta (James Shigeta). However\, as the elder generation begins taking an interest in the marital futures of their children it is unclear whether any of them will be able to marry for love.  \nSchedule:\n7:05: short preview of the Philly Asian Histories Project\n7:15: introduction to “Flower Drum Song” by Fleisher Programs Director (and PAAFF Festival Director) Rob Buscher\n7:20: film starts \nAbout PAPA:\nWe are a collective of theatre artists who seek to enhance and strengthen the presence of Asian Americans in the Philadelphia theatre community. Our goal is to provide consistent\, focused training with workshops and mentorship for their members through partnerships with professional theaters and artists. As a result of sustaining and increasing the skill levels of this group\, we hope to empower and retain emerging Asian American theater artists in Philadelphia. As PAPA grows and strengthens\, we aim to encourage and create performance opportunities for PAPA members and also reflect the greater diversity of this city and its stories. \nAbout PAAFF:\nPhiladelphia Asian American Film & Filmmakers is a nonprofit organization founded in 2008 to celebrate and elevate the voices of the Asian American & Pacific Islander experience in cinema. For over a decade we have presented captivating year-round programs that engage and inspire Asian communities while building bridges between diverse communities throughout Philadelphia. The Philadelphia Asian American Film Festival\, traditionally held in November\, is our marquee event and prides itself as the largest film festival on the East Coast dedicated to AAPI content. The festival brings in audience members from around the country and AAPI filmmakers\, actors\, and leaders from around the world.
