Ebony Noelle Golden and Jupiter Performance Studio Launch New Course on Performance and Climate

Jupiter Performance Studio (JPS) is thrilled to announce the launch of JPS Lab, an in-person and virtual creative development initiative designed and led by Founding Artistic Director, Ebony Noelle Golden. The course, black/water: Worlding, Wilding, and Wandering as Womanist Praxis, offers seven half-day sessions that build on Golden's current scholarship, artistic practice, and cultural organizing efforts.

Established in 2020, JPS is a hub for the study of diasporic Black performance traditions. With a commitment to expanding the collective ability to imagine truly liberated futures, Golden looks forward to supporting the exploration of Black performance, culture, and legacies of liberation that actively engage individuals and communities. In addition to JPS' education and culture work, the Studio is currently developing two theatrical ceremonies, Jubilee 11213: The Keeping, commissioned by Weeksville Heritage Center and In The Name Of The Mother Tree, commissioned by Apollo Theater and National Black Theatre.
