Sea Change Lab

Join this Locals’ Night on December 15 to experience Santa Monica resident, artist, and curator Marcus Kuiland-Nazario’s Sea Change Lab, a multi-site, interdisciplinary, contemporary art program which explores the senses and how they have been affected by COVID-19, isolation and separation. As part of December’s Locals’ Night, Sea Change Lab will present a handful of performances, activities and art including a site-specific dance performance by award-winning Santa Monica choreographer Lionel Popkin in collaboration with dancer Carolyn Fitzgerald, and a conversation between artist/filmmaker Nao Bustamante and chef/KCRW’s Good Food host Evan Kleiman on how COVID-19 has changed our relationship to our kitchens. Returning to the Sea Change Lab is Typewriters Anonymous with their interactive, beat-flavored poetry workshop/performance accompanied by live music, a set by DJ/scholar Madison Moore, and a listening station where stories from artists and community members about quarantine experiences will be shared and collected. The McCabe’s Hootenanny Collective is comprised of teachers and staff from McCabe’s Guitar Shop. Attendees are invited to bring their voices and instrument of choice and join in a Holiday sing-along free-for-all.
