SUMMARY:AURORA BIENNIAL 2024: FUTUREPRESENTPAST
DESCRIPTION:AURORA\, the Dallas-based public arts organization founded by\nartists in 2010\, is pleased to announce the full artist list and project details for the sixth edition of the\nAURORA Biennial—the largest free public art and technology event in North Texas. Under the theme\nFuturePresentPast\, the 2024 edition will take over significant sites across Downtown Dallas on\nSaturday\, November 16\, 2024\, offering a transformative art and technology experience to all. \nCurated by Kendal Henry and Leslie Moody Castro\, the one-night event will feature large-scale\, site-\nspecific installations\, performances\, and activations by twenty-six visionary artists. Addressing a diverse \nset of societal issues such as displacement\, migration\, health advocacy\, and environmental\nsustainability\, the multimedia\, often interactive\, installations engage with social and technological\nhistories\, offering speculative visions of potential futures. From algorithmic artworks to musical\nperformances\, the Biennial projects will explore human relationships with technology and built\nenvironments\, mimicry and misinformation\, memory\, and more.\nDaniel Canogar\, Rafael Lozano-Hemmer\, and Alejandro Almanza Pereda will join the list of\nparticipating artists that includes Ciara Elle Bryant\, Jess Garland\, Doug Land\, Julie Libersat\,\nMelanie Clemmons and Zak Loyd\, Steve Parker\, Hector A. Ramirez\, Diana Rojas\, Daniel Rozin\,\nTramaine Townsend\, Marina Zurkow and James Schmitz\, and talented students from Booker T.\nWashington High School for the Performing and Visual Arts in Dallas.\nA centerpiece of this year’s program is the debut of Midnight Moment outside of Times Square\,\nmarking the first time this iconic public art event has traveled beyond New York City. As the world’s\nlargest and longest-running digital public art program\, it will transform the Dallas skyline with video\nworks by Nancy Baker Cahill\, Marco Brambilla\, Zoë Buckman\, Victoria Fard\, Casey Kauffmann\,\nKambui Olujimi\, Alex Prager\, Federico Solmi\, and Tali Keren and Alex Strada. The video works will\nbe projected every half hour at key sites including Dallas City Hall\, the Dallas Public Library\, and the\nKay Bailey Hutchison Convention Center.\nIn collaboration with local partners\, AURORA has played a critical role in elevating Dallas as a cultural\ncapital for art and technology for over a decade\, attracting over 350\,000 visitors to the previous five\neditions of the large-scale Biennial. This year’s Biennial will take place across an expansive urban\nfootprint\, centered on the iconic I.M. Pei-designed Dallas City Hall and surrounding areas. With a focus\non bridging local and global communities\, the event will bring together regional\, national\, and\ninternational artists in a thought-provoking showcase of technology-driven public art. \nAURORA Biennial 2024\nFuturePresentPast\nSaturday\, November 16th\, 2024\, 7PM–1AM\nDallas City Hall\, 1500 Marilla St.\nFREE ENTRY\ndallasaurora.com

SUMMARY:THE HALF AIN'T NEVER BEEN TOLD   a stage play of pride\, struggle\, and victory
DESCRIPTION:SOUTH DALLAS  \nCONNECTIONAL ALLIANCE \nWe are inviting you to…drum roll\, please. \nTHE HALF AIN’T NEVER BEEN TOLD \na stage play of pride\, struggle\, and victory \nProduced by Remembering Black Dallas \n\n George Keaton\, Jr.\, Founding Executive Director of Remembering Black Dallas\, has skillfully combined his knowledge of local history and creative talents to produce a magnificent play about little known Dallas Black pioneers ‘making a way out of no way.’ \n\nCome witness the legacy of our bold and ingenious Black Ancestors:(brief bios) \nThelma Richardson —  in 1942 with the help of Negro Teacher’s Alliance & civil rights attorney Thurgood Marshall\, Mrs. Richardson had to “fight the power”\, winning a landmark lawsuit that “charged for years the Dallas school district maintained a policy of paying Black teachers and principals less than white educators with the same education\, experience.”  Organize. Educate. \nOtis Boykin — a genius and valedictorian of his 1932 Booker T. Washington class\, dropped out of college but later went on to become an inventor/engineer with 25 major patents including a patent that enables the pacemaker to function properly. \nAnderson Bonner – was born an enslaved African around 1835 and after the Emancipation Proclamation of 1865 \, Brother Bonner got busy letting his dollars stack and became one of the largest landowners in Dallas County with over 2000 acres.  Free the Land. \nJulia Scott Reed – a highly acclaimed journalist at  the Black owned Dallas Express Newspaper\, Mrs. Reed left the Express to become  the first Black journalist hired at the Dallas Morning News in1967 during the height of the Civil Rights/Black Power Movements. \nR.C. Hickman – a fearless country fella from Mineola\, Texas came to Dallas with his camera to get his ‘hustle’ on and ended up accidently documenting the history of Black Dallas.
