Richard III at The Senator
1PM
The Senator Theatre
5904 York Rd, Baltimore
4K RESTORATION BY THE FILM FOUNDATION
“In Richard III, director, producer, and star Laurence Olivier brings Shakespeare’s masterpiece of Machiavellian villainy to ravishing cinematic life. Olivier is diabolically captivating as Richard, Duke of Gloucester, who, through a series of murderous machinations, steals the crown from his brother Edward. And he surrounds himself with a royal supporting cast, which includes Ralph Richardson, John Gielgud, and Claire Bloom. Filmed in VistaVision and Technicolor, Richard III is one of the most visually inspired of all big-screen Bard adaptations.” (Criterion Collection)

Founded in 2015 by The Chase Brothers, Adam Chase and Matthew Chase, Jazz is Phsh has quickly become a world renown tribute to Phish, attracting some of the most influential musicians in the jazz and jam scenes to take part in this collective approach to paying tribute to one of the most important and influential bands in Rock and Roll history. With the music of Phish being both largely improvised as well as highly composed, the framework of Phish’s music is the perfect vehicle for exploring in an instrumental setting. The compositions are both challenging and adaptive. Jazz is Phsh provides an exploration of Phish music unlike anything else.

Small Victories / Rachel Bone / Madeleine Cutrona
6PM – 9PM
School 33 Art Center
1427 Light St, Baltimore
Opening at School 33 Art Center Friday, July 1, 2016- 6-9pm in our Main Gallery, Members Gallery, and Project Space- “Small Victories”- A group exhibition curated by Jose Ruiz, “Hold Close What I Pass On”- A solo exhibition of paintings by Rachel Bone, and “Often Times Other People Win”- A mixed media installation by Madeline Cutrona. Light refreshments will be served. All three exhibitions will be on view June 1 – August 27, 2016
“Small Victories” upends everyday moments and overlooked vestiges of society as a means to prompt intimate experiences, associating iconic gestures and symbolism through a group of artists working with castoffs, repurposed materials, and nostalgic ephemera. This relationship between experience and meaning causally constructs humble yet sincere artworks that run perpendicularly away from the narrow parallels of abstraction and figuration. Featuring thirteen artists from the Mid-Atlantic region, “Small Victories” brings forward a series of studio actions and interventions in painting, photography, sculpture, new media, and installation. Installed as a series of constellations or nodes creating new systems, the individual works in Small Victories ultimately find new meaning through an associative context. “Small Victories” is part of the 2016 Artscape Network.

Champions of a well-cured, San Antonio sound, Max Baca y Los Texmaniacs continue the tradition of accordion-bajo sexto driven Tex/Mex dance bands that combine polka, rock en español and Texas blues. Theirs is as equally indebted to their family conjunto as it is to the bands they have shared the stage and recording studio with- Los Super Seven, The Texas Tornadoes, Los Lobos, and the Rolling Stones.
Opening the night, The Stone Hill All-Stars, Baltimore’s legendary recording and dance band, is joined by members of Mambo Combo, The Polkats, and Rhumba Club. Baltimore’s City Paper says that All-Stars John Shock and Paul Margolis “have been at the helm of some of the best roots-rock bands in Baltimore.” Members of The Stone Hill All-Stars have backed up Greg Kihn, Sleepy LaBeef, Jorma Kaukonen, and many other regional and national acts. Join them for a blistering dance set as they share the bill with the great Max Baca and Los TexManiacs.
