TONIGHT - 9.21 @ 4PM - the timeless melodies of Venice come alive at the Dairy Arts Center! Join us for Compass Resonance: Anonimo Veneziano and immerse yourself in the works of Tomaso Albinoni, played by an ensemble of exceptional musicians.

Our performance brings renowned violinist Nurit Pacht from NYC to Boulder, collaborating with Music Director/violinist Zachary Carrettin and the CORE ensemble. Harpsichord virtuoso Chris Holman joins us from Cincinnati, and ancient plucked instrument maestro Keith Barnhart brings his theorbo—rich in tone, adding a powerful depth to the ensemble’s sonority.

How familiar are you with LGBTQ+ history? Our upcoming world premiere, ‘Stockade’, written by Andrew Rosendorf with Carlyn Aquiline and directed by Christy-Montour Larson, explores the impact of The Lavender Scare on the LGBTQIA+ community. The Lavender Scare was a period in which the US government conducted a witch hunt against suspected or known homosexual government employees. This ultimately sparked demonstrations like in 1965, where the first pickets for gay rights in Washington, DC, happened in front of the north side of the White House. These pickets, some of the first protests for gay rights in the country, were organized by the local chapter of the Mattachine Society, a gay rights organization founded in 1950. We open September 28. Have you bought your tickets yet? Visit the link in our bio to get yours!
