GHCC’s CREAR supports Latino representation in the arts. \nIn DREAM HOU$E\, two Latina sisters go on an HGTV-style reality show to sell their family home\, hoping to capitalize on the gentrification in their “changing neighborhood.” As they perform for the camera\, one sister grapples with turmoil in the family’s ancestral past while the other learns how much she’s willing to sacrifice for the family’s future. What is the cultural cost of progress in America — and is cashing in always selling out? DREAM HOU$E is the winner of the 2021/22 Alliance/Kendeda National Graduate Playwriting Competition.  \n\n\n\n\n​ \n\n\nEliana Pipes is a playwright\, performer and filmmaker.

BA Columbia University\, MFA Playwriting Boston University.

SUMMARY:Community Talk: Gentrification and culture in American communities
DESCRIPTION:Hertz Stage // Memorial Arts Building  \nFollowing the 7:30pm performance of DREAM HOU$E  \nIn Eliana Pipes’ DREAM HOU$E\, past and present collide in an effort to lay claim to a family’s future. As gentrification takes root and prices soar across metro Atlanta\, many are faced with difficult housing decisions that have long lasting effects on families and communities. For some\, lack of affordable housing and pathways to home ownership can spell displacement that tends to impact communities of color the most. For others\, selling a home comes with its own calculus of accumulating financial wealth at the expense of cultural ties. This panel explores themes from the play to examine the cost of progress in Atlanta – one of the fastest gentrifying cities in the US – through the lens of housing and real estate\, public policy\, and activism.  This conversation is free with a ticket purchase to the performance on February 10th.  \n  \nModerated by Justin Anderson\, Director\, Educator\, Place Maker\, and REALTOR® \n \nJustin Anderson is a licensed real estate consultant with The Welcome Home Atlanta Team\, powered by Keller Williams First Atlanta.

SUMMARY:Janelle Monáe: The Memory Librarian Book Tour by Brave + Kind Bookshop
DESCRIPTION:About this event\nJoin us for an evening with Janelle Monáe and contributing author Eve L. Ewing. Each ticket includes one copy of The Memory Librarian.  \n*Masks and proof of vaccination are required for attendees* \nWho holds your memories? \nFrom groundbreaking musician\, actor\, fashion icon and futurist Janelle Monáe and an outstanding group of collaborators comes THE MEMORY LIBRARIAN\, a collection of short fiction\, bringing to the written page the rebellious and Afrofuturistic world of Monáe’s critically acclaimed album Dirty Computer. \nJanelle Monáe and an incredible array of talented collaborating creators have written a collection of tales comprising the bold vision and powerful themes that have made Monáe such a compelling and celebrated storyteller. Dirty Computer introduced a world in which thoughts—as a means of self-conception—could be controlled or erased by a select few. And whether human\, A.I.\, or other\, your life and sentience was dictated by those who’d convinced themselves they had the right to decide your fate. \nBuilding off the traditions of speculative writers such as Octavia Butler\, Ted Chiang\, Becky Chambers\, and Nnedi Okorafor—and filled with the artistic genius and powerful themes that have made Monáe a worldwide icon in the first place—The Memory Librarian serves readers tales grounded in the human trials of identity expression\, technology\, and love\, but also reaching through to the worlds of memory and time within\, and the stakes and power that exists there. \nJANELLE MONÁE is widely celebrated as an American singer/songwriter\, actress\, producer\, fashion icon\, and futurist whose globally successful career spans over a decade. With her highly theatrical and stylized concept albums\, she has garnered eight Grammy nominations and has developed her own label imprint\, Wondaland Arts Society. Monáe has also earned great success as an actor\, starring in critically acclaimed films including Moonlight\, Hidden Figures\, Harriet\, The Glorias\, and the 2020 horror film Antebellum. She will star in the highly anticipated sequel Knives Out 2. The Memory Librarian is her debut book. \n

SUMMARY:Palefsky Collision Project
DESCRIPTION:For three weeks each summer\, the Alliance Theatre assembles a diverse group of 20 teenagers from metro Atlanta to explore and unpack a classic text under the guidance of a professional playwright and director. Through improvisational exercises\, oral history\, choreography\, the individual performing talents they possess\, and their writing\, the teenagers create a new piece inspired by the classic text but perceived through their own utterly unique and contemporary prism. The Palefsky Collision Project affords teens a unique theatrical experience and gives them ownership of a performance at the Alliance. It also gives students validity – confidence in their talents\, strength for the future\, and power in their decisions. \nThrough this dynamic project\, metro Atlanta teens create theater for and about themselves by “colliding” with a dramatic text\, reinforcing the idea that theater can address their particular ideas and feelings. \n \nText: Conflict Resolution for Holy Beings by Joy Harjo \nPerformances\nPublic performances of the 2022 Palefsky Collision Project will take place in-person. Tickets are free\, but advanced registration is required! \n\nSaturday\, July 9\, 2022 // 7 PM\nSunday\, July 10\, 2022 // 2:30 PM\n\n2022 Participants\n \n \nThis experience is free to all participants through generous support from Howard and Victoria Palefsky. The Palefsky Collision Project takes place with the support of the Mellon Foundation’s National Playwright Residency Program administered in partnership with Howlround. \n
