SUMMARY:Key Frames: Kiki
DESCRIPTION:This African Heritage Month\, Key Frames presents KIKI\, a 2016 documentary film that explores the lives of LGBTQ+ youth-of-colour in New York City’s underground Ballroom scene. Following seven youths over four years\, the film explores how challenges can be overcome through artistic exploration\, producing a community scene that validates lived experiences and gender expressions.   \n\n\n\n\n“In New York City\, LGBTQ youth-of-colour gather out on the Christopher Street Pier\, practicing a performance-based artform\, Ballroom\, which was made famous in the early 1990s by Madonna’s music video “Vogue” and the documentary “Paris Is Burning.” Twenty-five years after these cultural touchstones\, a new and very different generation of LGBTQ youth have formed an artistic activist subculture\, named the Kiki Scene.” — http://www.kikimovie.com/synopsis   \n\n\n\n\nIn anticipation of Séamus Gallagher’s solo exhibition and in celebration of African Heritage Month\, this film celebrates the histories and present experiences of Black Queer communities\, whose legacies continue to echo in contemporary artistic practices.   \n\n\n\n\nReserve Your Seat\n\n\n\n\nFeatured youth: Chi Chi Mizrahi\, Gia Marie Love\, Divo Pink Lady\, Twiggy Pucci Garcon\, Izana “Zaryia Mizrahi” Vidal\, Christopher Waldorf\, Kenneth “Symba McQueen” Soler-Rios  Director: Sara Jordenö  Produced by: IFC Films  Official website: http://www.kikimovie.com/about  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout the Program\n\n\n\nKey Frames screens films by Indigenous\, Black\, and artists-of-colour which seek to offer further readings of artworks on display at the AGNS.

SUMMARY:Make Day! Play with Clay
DESCRIPTION:Let’s play with clay! Bringing back a crowd-favourite\, we will kick off March Break with a clay-centric Make Day. Using your hands or clay tools\, this is a chance to explore air dry clay and shape it into…. a dog\, tiny house\, pizza or more\, before painting your unique creations! Anything goes – use your imagination and get creative!    \n\n\n\nWork independently\, or with your small group\, this program is great for children ages 5+ with an adult. Drop-in\, included with the price of admission. \n\n\n\nThis Make Day falls on Nova Scotia march break and therefore may be busier than usual. Please be patient with our staff and volunteers as we work to accommodate everyone.  \n\n\n\nAbout the program: \n\n\n\nMake Day is a studio program for emerging artists of all ages! Designed as an intergenerational art workshop\, these sessions lead participants in a short art lesson that introduces an art technique or process\, resulting in a fun art piece you can take home. A great way to get connected\, inspired\, and creative with friends or family. Each month’s activity is inspired by works in an exhibition currently on view.
