The Icebox engages a broad National and International audience, and visitors should expect a level of engagement with programming, with the space itself, and with the community it continues to build. Please join us in creating this expanding dialogue.

Vervet Dance will be premiering “Quartet for the End of Time,” a contemporary modern dance choreographed by Loren Groenendaal to music “Quatour Pour La Fin Du Temps” by Olivier Messiaen from 1941 on November 22-23, 2024 at the Icebox Project Space.

More information and ticket link are in the link in bio.

While this work deals with the difficult themes of apocalypse, existential questioning of time, humanitarian and environmental disasters, the overall expression is poetic, hopeful and uplifting, seeking to provide solace in difficult times.

The amazing cast includes dancers Miryam Coppersmith, Loren Groenendaal, Chloe Marie, and Kate Seethaler and musicians Melinda Faylor (piano and Music Director), Julie Kim (cello), and Mara Mayer (clarinet), and Charlotte Munn Wood (violin). Our incredible Lighting Designer and Operator and Production Manager is Su Güzey.

OPENING 2ND THURSDAY 6-9pm 🪿 Goose Song is a captivating spectacle reminiscent of an amusement park, with its own set of rules and regulations. Video, projection and a diy carnival ride bring viewers to questions of water rights and collectivity. In a 3-day engagement at Icebox May 9-11, you’re in for a wild ride!

It is fabled that swans sing a haunting song before their death, after being silent their entire lives. We are not the swan, silent until the end, but the goose, screaming, yelling, and wailing until our last breath.

TOMORROW we are screening the entirety of Gloria's Stupid World 2! Celebrating 20/92 Video Artist: .regular

"Told through a relentless barrage of 1-4 frame clips from television, flm, advertising, YouTube videos and stock
footage, the flm explores themes of paranoia, social isolation and identity. After years of abusing psychedelics, dissociatives and research chemicals, I became obsessed with the mind-altering capabilities of images, particularly social media, po*******hy, mobile games and slot machines. The flm, which contains over 20,000 individual clips drawing from 4TB of material downloaded from soulseek and torrent sites, starts with the creation of the universe and ends with the apocalypse, taking a look at consumerism, internet culture, raving, bulimia, drug abuse, gender dysphoria, and loneliness along the way."
