Karaoke in the Cemetery
Friday, September 26th
SAVE THE DATE
Join artist Leigh Davis for Karaoke in the Cemetery at The Woodlands. “Conceived as a transient experience, Karaoke in the Cemetery creates a platform for participants to express and share in grief responses through the act of singing together.”
Pre-registration required. If inclement weather occurs, this event will be postponed to Saturday, September 27th.
About the project: Karaoke in the Cemetery invites everyone to gather in the cemetery to sing, listen, dance, or make a raucous or emotional mess together, shattering cultural expectations that grief should be kept silent. Karaoke is more than just the singing of a song; it's an outlet for emotions to break from everyday life. Allowing our grief to spill out through vibrations that echo into the here and now, let's celebrate our simultaneous existence.
About the Artist: Leigh Davis is an interdisciplinary artist. Her projects explore themes of grief, memory and storytelling, delving into how these shared human experiences shape our understanding of identity. Her work often takes the form of a collaboration with the public. Come join this project or learn more about her work here.
