In Spring 2020, glo and the Dewberry Foundation transformed Midtown Atlanta’s dormant lot into a 2.5 acre wildflower prairie.The glo platform’s approach to Land Art is the same as our choreographic thinking- a hybridity of forms emphasizing interconnectedness, solidarity networks, and art making as a care system.

Springs and Eden’s
2023-07-13 12:00 - 13:30
Springs and Eden’s is a visceral moving new work created to interact with the environments of Atlanta’s Historic Springs that melds live movement, music, and cinematic beauty. Springs and Eden’s acts as a wellspring for tenderizing the senses, a portal to recharge emotions, and a vessel for bringing folk to the mineral springs for health that we all need.
We are in a moment of an explosion of opportunity for intelligent embodied practices to proffer other guidance: to explore attention to one another, braid the binaries, and find healing through the wisdom we harbor beneath our skin.

From July 8 to 30, glo presides over a live art series full of exciting interdisciplinary dialogue paired with our signature attention to connection, and flow.

WeBop experimental youth Jazz initiative
2023-05-21 10:00 - 12:30
We are honored to welcome Jazz at Lincoln Center to glo, and Atlanta. This freshly announced partnership between Jazz at Lincoln Center, Atlanta Symphony Orchestra, Gallery 992, and glo platform–is perhaps the first of its kind to understand Jazz as an embodied exercise in problem-solving and as means to affect positive change in everyday life of youth, and their caregivers.
Launch
Sundays through May 21, 10am-12:30am
Atlanta Symphony Orchestra
Free and public.
A best word might be synergy—what might we do with our energies, resources, and talents? What if they could pull together and achieve a greater effect than the sum of their individual parts? WeBop experimental youth Jazz initiative’s launch in Atlanta is timely as we all continue to awaken to a new world. Its aim is simple: to bring intelligent, creative movement artists and musicians together as collaborators and friends; to create a rhythmic community that cultivates children’s natural way of being, to explore multi-sensory natures, and the rhythm of our hearts, all that is alive, which is the mayfly metamorphosing on the surface of the river.
The first session of WeBop in Atlanta continues through May 21, 2023.

The opportunity to audition is open to all moving artists with listening abilities, versatility, who are open, and wish to be a part of an environment in which deep attention is possible, to explore with the body, sound, and more than humans. We value the pleasure for perseverance and to move with open eyes, make room for our ancestors, while paying attention to others next to us. For your consideration, it is essential to have deep love for the body as expression, and have keen spatial and bodily awareness, with capacity to question and deconstruct.

Come to the February 28 workshop in Atlanta, from 10am-2pm in the rehearsal hall of Atlanta Symphony. This workshop includes improvisation and in-depth exploration of the unique movement vocabulary developed by our founder lauri stallings, and principles of composition in which structures become processes for social transformation. Bring with you a photo of you that will assist us in getting to know you and a write-up highlighting your relationship to movement, involving your history, practice, and presence as a moving artist. Please include your contact information.
Participation in workshops is free of charge. All moving artists who move forward with glo will be compensated $20-23 an hour each week.
We are concerned with making the project spiritually, physically, emotionally, and culturally accessible to all who are interested. We will hold creative process for a total of approximately 12 hours a week. In addition, you must allow time for rehearsal with the whole creative team, and public engagements the last 2 weeks of July for a new creation.
Schedule
Creative Process: Tues/Thurs/Sat, 10am-2pm (Atlanta)beginning March 2023 onwards
