Once Upon A Time, Wistaria Project received a Performing Artist Residency from the Center at West Park, and we wanted to share the opportunity with others, while creating a special experience for audience and presenters alike (including us).

 

We recognize that an interlocking network of long-standing and ongoing systems of prejudice and inequality has conspired to put us in a position to receive this residency, and so we want to share what we’ve been given. In a city of high rent costs, we want to provide other artists and orgs really free space for part of an evening to present what they want -- in a spirit of community and collaboration, rather than commerce and competition. So, for  Feast Your Famine: a watch-and-play -- we invited a small cohort of performing artists and social-action organizations to present their work as RE-RESIDENTS, collaborate with us and each other on some shared elements of the event, and journey through each night of the program together. 

​

​

And, we’re sculpting something larger, too, that we’re excited to invite all the artists, activists and audience to collaborate on creating. A series of 5 days that is made together. Somewhere between a performance, a community gathering, and a something else, we hope to invite all of you to join us for this feast of famine.
