BLUE WEEK: Core of Me: A Hike-Play by Jeremy Pickard of Superhero Clubhouse

Core of Me: A Hike-Play is a moving performance that coexists with a walk in the woods by the Hudson River, exploring climate anxiety and resilience through the perspectives of a human and a tree, seeking guidance from each other in a time of rapid change. Attend the first performance of Core of Me: A Hike Play and then stick around to enjoy Lamont’s Open House, a science fair at one of the world’s top climate science campuses at Columbia University. Core of Me: A Hike Play is being developed as part of Pratt’s STEAMplant residency program. The October 5 performance is presented as part of Lamont’s annual Open House event, which is free and open to the public. Find out more about the day’s activities.
