SUMMARY:Lafayette Historic Tour of Fairmount Water Works

Tours will include excerpts from the extensive writings of both Lafayette and his secretary\, Auguste Levasseur\, about their experience at the site\, that is now designated a Historic Landmark building.\nOpen to all.

SUMMARY:Bodies of Water
DESCRIPTION:Bodies of Water\nThe Naked Stark\nArt for Young Audiences\, Dance\, Immersive & Interactive Experience\nMeet The Naked Stark at Fairmount Water Works!\nOur 10th annual community gathering offers a glimpse into our process and a sneak peek into our 2026 production. Dive into an exploration of water\, time and space celebrating the site’s architecture\, and the mosaic of memories in the former Kelly Pool. \nBodies of Water co-creators\, Amalia Colón-Nava\, Chloe Marie\, Harlee Trautman\, Katherine Kiefer Stark\, Marcie Mamura\, and Meredith Stapleton\, navigate the interplay of each performers’ relationship to water. We are at once streams flowing together and humans making space for each other\, carrying and being carried along\, discovering the power and possibilities that emerge when we come together. \nThis piece is an offering to drift\, pause\, and plunge into a shared inquiry of place and process; a phase in an ever evolving project. We invite you to enter the current of unfolding together\, between the seen and unseen\, and the water nearby. \nJoin us for a performance and reception as we discover mutual buoyancy\, find each other in the vastness\, dive through turbulence\, and surface together. \nThe event is 1-3pm\, featuring three experiences\, including a 20 minute performance.  The event ends with a reception open to all.   \nThis event is for all ages – meet us at the river! \n  \n
