How do we take care of each other in this moment? How does care shape the art we make? How can our art take care of us? Join friends and colleagues for “Performing Care,” a hands-on workshop for artists of all disciplines and experience levels. Theatremaker and educator Adil Mansoor will explore various contemporary artists, including sculptor Simone Leigh and theatermaker Brian Lobel, whose works embody acts of care. Participants will discuss care work and its relationship to gender, queerness, race, resistance and survival. Through conversations, games and writing exercises, participants will begin to brainstorm questions and research prompts for their future projects. 

Adil Mansoor is the writer and performer in Amm(i)gone, which will be presented at The Clarice Dec. 4, 5 and 6, with a Q&A after the first and second performances.
